Description
CIRCA: 2008 REF.: OP 6726 CASE NUMBER: PB 0575149
CASE MATERIAL: Stainless steel
CASE DIMENSIONS: 44 mm in diameter
DIAL: Black dial with Arabic and stick luminous hour markers
BRACELET MATERIAL: Panerai-signed brown leather strap and buckle
BRACELET SIZE: 7-1/8 to 8-7/8 inches

FUNCTIONS: Time only
On the eve of the Second World War Panerai created the first prototypes of the model now known as the "Radiomir" for the frogman commandos of the First Submarine Group Command of the Royal Italian Navy. From this auspicious beginning Panerai would become known for its military history and highly visible chronometer tools for underwater divers. In 1950 Panerai launched the Luminor which would further popularize the brand. The present watch is a beautifully maintained example of the Luminor complete with two extra straps (one rubber, one leather), strap changing tool, original box, guarantee card, and sales receipt.
