We have numerous automatic timepieces, including the Panerai Luminor, Richard Mille’s 028 Titanium diver’s watch, and Roger Dubuis’ Excalibur Automatic RD101.

The Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Oro Rosso features an automatic, mechanical Panerai P.9100 calibre movement with hours, minutes, small seconds, date, seconds reset and flyback chronograph functions.The Case of the Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback automatic measures 44 mm and is 18kt polished red gold or also referred to as ‘Oro Rosso’. This model features the trademark device protecting the crown, also in 18kt red gold. The black dial of this Panerai timepiece is black with luminous numerals and markers on the hours. The date is shown at the 3 o’clock position on the dial, the seconds counter is at the 9 o’clock position and a central chronograph shows the seconds and minutes as well. The Panerai Luminor 1950 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Oro Rosso is water-resistant to 50 meters and shown on a Panerai personalized brown alligator strap with an 18kt red gold buckle.

The winner of the Voiles de Saint Barth was awarded an RM 028 Titanium diver’s watch. Featuring a unidirectional rotating bezel, this timepiece is water-resistant to 300 metres (30 ATM) in compliance with the ISO 6425 standard for diver’s watches. The 47mm-diameter case is rendered perfectly watertight by the unique tripartite construction of the case and bezel, completed by lugs incorporated into the case assembly. The skeletonised automatic movement is equipped with Richard Mille’s exclusive variable geometry rotor to adapt the watch’s automatic winding to the activity of the user by the simple adjustment of two white-gold wings.
