[Gwylio Ffocws]PANERAI Luminor Due Luna| The beauty of pure moon phases-Life Blog Life-HiNet

Regarding Panerai (PANERAI), you probably have a clear outline in your mind: there is a crown guard bridge, and then it is equipped with an interpolated dial. In terms of function, it is nothing more than a three-hand chronograph or , almost That’s the combination. However, in the past few years, Panerai has begun to break in from various aspects to build a brand new look Luna’s latest Luminor Due moon phase watch to start from the function, increase Panerai’s options in complex functions, and enrich our understanding of Panerai Imagination of the sea.

We have previously written two articles detailing Panerai’s new Luminor Due Luna moon phase watch: “Panahai’s first pure moon phase function! Luna Due Luna Color Combination and Material Variation”, “Evolution and Re-Evolution! PANERAI: Reinventing the Line of Complex Functions”, here we will quickly solve the key points again, and finally talk about my thoughts on the actual watch after touching it.

Panerai's new Luna Luminor Due is the brand's first pure moon phase function.

The Luminor Due Luna moon phase watch is Panerai’s first pure moon phase function. Strictly speaking, Panerai has made moon phases in the past, but it is only one of the additional functions of complex functions. For example, the PAM00920 launched in 2018 is a tourbillon watch that integrates the equation of time and time two place that he is on the case back. This is the first time that Panerai has separated the moon phase function into one complex function.

Panerai made some ingenious adjustments in the design of the moon phase function. In the past, we have seen that the moon phase function is mainly set at 6 o’clock or 12 o’clock, and a small second hand or calendar indicator may be added to it. However, Panerai retains the typical configuration of the small seconds dial at 9 o’clock in the past, and the moon phase display moves to 3 o’clock along the way. The word Luna on the dial at six o’clock means the moon in Italian, and as for the moon made of 24K gold, it is very realistic and full of details.

The moon made of 24K gold is very realistic and full of details.

Panerai’s Luminor Due moon phase model has launched four 38mm styles. In addition to stainless steel, there is also Goldtech™ red gold material, and only this one has a mother-of-pearl surface, so it is also the only one in this wave of releases Version that is not a sandwich plate.

Panerai has clear outlines and striking shapes. Not everyone can copy such characteristics, but because it is too obvious, the brand must consider each step of the operation carefully if it is necessary to add or remove a stroke to’ the design. When I saw the Luminor Due Luna for the first time, it felt all-too-familiar. It was still the most familiar Panerai. As for the moon phase display, it was placed in the most suitable position, just as it had been born. It should be the same there, and it doesn’t break the peace at all.

Another innovation in the design of the Luminor Due Luna is that it only made a 38mm size in the first launch. In the past, the moon phase function was mainly placed on the “Wen watch”, but Panerai itself puts the most emphasis on sports style. If you want to say that the most suitable one is the Luminor Due series slim, among which 38mm is the most suitable. I was worried at first that 38mm would be too small for men, but the fact is, with the extension of the crown bridge structure, the visual effect looks bigger, and the thickness of the case is very good, I own at 17.5mm Worn around the wrists, it can be cleverly hidden in the cuffs, but still retains some weight, which is very beautiful. The Luminor Due Luna is definitely my favorite pure moon phase watch of late.
