The latter are kept company by large Arabic numerals, featured at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o'clock. Turning over them are hour and minutes hands, crafted from gold. The small seconds are indicated in a counter at 3 o'clock. Designed in a discreet style, the face of the new Luminor 1950 Destro 8 Days Titanio Special Edition watch also includes the name of the brand's collection, presented beneath the Arabic number at 12 o'clock.

Panerai have a long reputation for making diving watches of exceptional quality; Panerai company was founded in Florence in 1860.Panerai started making watches for the Italian navy. The company is now Swiss based. The overall look and design of Panerai watches hasn’t changed that much since they were first manufactured. Some technical advances have been made to the movements of course along with the appearance of the lugs that can be easily removed to replace the strap. And talking of straps, like most diving watches, Panerai now come with rubber straps. Titanium casings are now also available. But, essentially when you buy a Panerai watch you’ll be buying something that feel comfortable wearing.The Panerai Luminor comes with automatic mechanical movement. The black leather straps of the Panerai Luminor are good. You also get a rubber strap with this model. The buckle is brushed metal and comes with the Panerai logo. Unlike most watches, the straps are attached to the case by screws rather than spring bars – you use the screwdriver that comes with the watch to remove the screws from the case and strap. I like this feature; you feel the straps are properly secured to the casing. To be really safe, Panerai has put a small steel cylinder in the pinholes of the strap which you have to remove and put in the holes of the rubber strap.The Panerai Luminor Marina is heavy and feels as though it’s solidly built. If you’re going to wear Specials Watches, you want it to feel robust and tough enough to withstand whatever you throw at it. For such a large watch, the crown of the Luminor is thin; however it has a large crown-guard with the Panerai patented open/close-system to keep it water-resistant. The slightly rounded sapphire crystal really does complement the rounded lugs and soft curves of the case. In fact, the casing has a definite ‘soft’ look to it, which helps to ‘lighten’ the appearance of the large case as well as remind you of the workmanship that goes into the making of the case and watch overall.The dial of the Replica Panerai Luminor Marina Automatic Chrono Watches are black or white. The minute and hour hands are simple in design; straight with triangular points, they are luminescent with a black rim. Another fine detail is the length of the minute hand; it stops short of the indices. The indices are large Arabic numerals, the numerals at 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock being slightly larger. Overall, the dial of the Replica Panerai Luminor Marina Automatic Chrono Watches is clear, easy to read with an understated elegance.Despite Panerai watches originally being made for diving, I find myself wearing this watch for all occasions. It’s simple, elegant dial and the rounded contours of the casing allow me to wear the watch on formal occasions, while its chunkiness and obvious outdoor pedigree also make it ideal as Sports Watches for sports activities. The Panerai Luminor Marina Automatic Chrono is a watch I now I shall wear for many years without feeling the need to replace it.
