Panerai Luminor Chrono PAM00168 40 mm Blue Dial

The Luminor Chrono PAM00168 brings together a blue polished dial, Arabic numerals and the broad, purposeful presence of a 40mm titanium case. Its fixed stainless steel bezel and matching bracelet give the watch a crisp metallic counterpoint, while luminous detailing keeps the display legible. Small seconds and a chronograph define the dial's rhythm, with a date adding a practical note to the arrangement. Rated to 100 metres, it retains the confident proportions associated with Panerai's sportier chronographs.

Inside, Panerai OP XII uses an automatic ETA/Valjoux 7753 chronograph base modified by Panerai. The 30mm movement is 7.9mm high, beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour and contains 27 jewels. Its single barrel provides 46 hours of power, giving this substantial case a movement with a clear, workmanlike chronograph identity.
