The case is made of gray ceramics - zirconia - a polymorphic crystalline substance whose melting point is 2,680 ° C. Virtually any scratch resistant, is an alloy is very resistant to bending and breaking.
It 'a material that the Richemont Group - which is part of IWC - has developed and used with the Panerai brand, last year with the ceramic Radiomir 8 days and in 2010 with the Luminor 1950 Ceramic 10 days .
The size of the Miramar Top Gun chronograph Chronograph are huge: 48 mm. in diameter. The Top Gun cap with the logo, buttons and crown are made of titanium. Other qualities of its case are its translucency that goes well with a dark gray dial and the graphics hardware of vintage cream and Arabic numerals, and with around 12 hours of concentric red. The date is a long window that shows three days at a time without a selector that shows the current (middle), but a version may not yet final. The photos show combined with a canvas strap khaki.
Interesting but the news that after years of using IWC movements based ETA / Valjoux 7750, mount it to the chronograph Caliber 89365 manufacturing than with a power reserve of up to 168 hours also provides the flyback function.
Initially Officine Panerai Radiomir and Luminor used to distinguish the luminescent substances used to increase the visibility and night diving quadrant: do not remember certainly a passionate brand of Florence for years that they were used by rangers of the Italian Navy, not for leisure.
Over time, the two terms came to identify the shape of two boxes of watches brand icon, which actually represent the evolution of the other one. The case arose from the need to make Luminor even more resistant and waterproof Radiomir case: in fact, the device was added to form bridge with clamping lever that protected and immobilized crown making it even more tightly, while the large loops straight derived from the same block of the case, which had replaced the wire instead of welded.
At SIHH 2011 Panerai has proposed for the first time a case, he wants with its forms recall the culmination of this transformation of his two - we could call them nicely - "amphibious watch".
His name is Luminor 1950 3 Days - 47 mm. As you can see in the picture below, the Luminor 1950 case middle of the chest of the new model, made of polished steel in the classical time measurement of 47 mm, has a pronounced cusp rounded on the sides, descending directly from the design of the pillow case that still characterizes today Radiomir watches .
But there are other details that distinguish this unique "recovery" of moments that now belong to the past tense of Panerai: The bottom plate with a large sapphire crystal window that shows the movement of manufacturing, the handles slightly more subtle, and the Plexiglas ® glass, the engraving - as in the historical models - the reference between the loops, the Luminor Panerai written no longer printed but engraved on the dial with the characters of the time.
The faithful quadrant has the well-known sandwich structure which leaves appear on the lower level only what is treated with SuperLuminova. Even the hour and minute hands are covered with the same luminescent substance ecru.
