Panerai

Founded in 1860 in Florence, Italy by Giovanni Panerai, Panerai combines Italian design, Swiss technology, as well as passion for the sea and incorporates these essences into their timepieces. The company is now based in Switzerland, the country known for its watchmaking.

To this day, Panerai is one of those distinct and immediately recognizable brands that is loved by many—especially those with the wrists large enough to pull off their often substantial cases. The brand even has a cult-like group of enthusiasts called the Paneristi.

Today, their iconic Luminor and Radiomir models are considered two of the world’s most coveted timepieces.
