Panerai Is Launching New Luminor Marina In Collaboration With Free Diving Champion Guillaume Néry
Panerai has something to celebrate this year, as it is 70 years ago that the Luminor was first created. While initially developed for military divers, it has grown to become one of the most iconic and loved sports watches. Among its fans is Panerai-ambassador and World Champion free diving Guillaume Néry. With the new Luminor Marina 44mm Guillaume Néry Edition does the French diver continue his close collaboration with Panerai, which in the recent past also resulted in two stunning Submersible Chronographs.

Watch of the Week: Panerai Submersible Chrono Guillaume Nery Edition
Within the collection of Panerai does the Submersible hold a special place. They are often even bolder than their siblings, which is especially the case with the Submersible Chrono Guillaume Nery Edition. With a diameter of 47mm, it is large, even for a Panerai. The case is crafted from titanium to keep the weight down and has a black DLC coating. DLC stands for 'Diamond-Like Carbon,' which is a robust coating that Panerai applied with a matte finish.
