LUMINOR 1950 EQUATION OF TIME TOURBILLON TITANIO, 50MM – REF. PAM00365<br />

Continuously introducing innovations that surpass all expectations—especially for a relatively new movement manufacturer—<br />

Officine Panerai’s approach to <strong>the</strong> most complicated of all grand complications, <strong>the</strong> equation of time, has set a new industry<br />

standard. The Luminor 1950 Equation of Time Tourbillon Titanio, also called L’Astronomo, is <strong>the</strong> ultimate tribute to <strong>the</strong> genius<br />

of Galileo Galilei and showcases some of <strong>the</strong> rarest, most exclusive and fascinating specialties in watch-making. Completely<br />

customized for <strong>the</strong> owner, L’Astronomo showcases a tourbillon with equation of time functionality, sunrise/sunset times for <strong>the</strong><br />

city chosen by <strong>the</strong> wearer, and depiction of <strong>the</strong> star map of <strong>the</strong> night sky for that locality on <strong>the</strong> back plate. All of <strong>the</strong>se functions<br />

are powered by <strong>the</strong> hand-wound, 375-component Panerai P.2005/G caliber, which also features a 4-day power reserve and Panerai<br />

tourbillon regulator, and housed inside a 50mm titanium case that is water resistant to 10 bar (100m), thanks to its patented<br />

crown-protecting device. Produced in just 30 examples, it is <strong>the</strong> most technically sophisticated timepiece ever produced by<br />

Officine Panerai.<br />
