Panerai Luminor Marina 44 mm homages

Panerai says it patented the Luminor with its sandwich dial and crown-protecting bridge, and that the Luminor and Luminor Marina Militare became available to civilians in 1993. The Luminor Marina name goes back to a compact black PVD-coated steel model from the 1990s.

The PAM03312 is the 2025 update: a 44 mm brushed steel cushion case with the crown bridge, a black matte sandwich dial with green Super-LumiNova X2, small seconds at 9, date at 3, a sapphire back, 500 m water resistance (up from 300 m) and the new P.980 movement with a three-day reserve. Panerai says the case is 12% thinner and the lugs more streamlined than before. The previous model, the PAM01312, was also 44 mm wide.
