Panerai introduces a new generation of their Fibratech watches: Luminor Marina Fibratech 44 mm (PAM01663). This material is used for the case of this model, however set off and enhanced by Carbotech used for the bezel and the crown bridge lever.
Panerai Luminor Marina Fibratech 44 mm (PAM01663)
Obtained with natural and eco-sustainable row fibers, Fibratech is a composite with remarkable physical and mechanical properties. It is 60% lighter than steel, resilient and highly resistant to corrosion.
The bezel and the crown bridge lever are made of Carbotech
Fibratech is made from unidirectional mineral fibres produced by the fusion of basalt rock; these fibers, binded with polymers, become thin layers which are superimposed in a precise orientation and then consolidated through a pressure and temperature controlled process.

The new PAM01663 runs with calibre P.9010 that has been entirely conceived and developed by the Panerai Manufacture in Neuchâtel. The 6 mm thin automatic movement is fitted with the function for quickly setting the time, which at the same time modifies the date. The movement has a power reserve of 72 hours, provided by its twin spring barrels.
