Buy Panerai Luminor Marina Quaranta 40mm Blue Dial Replica Watch Review

In our impression, Panerai is known for its "tough guy style", and large-sized watches are its signature feature. However, in November last year, Panerai launched new works. Their size is 40 mm, which is the smallest version of the replica Luminor Marina series watches currently in production, providing Panerai lovers with more choices. The new replica Luminor Marina Quaranta Luminor series watch is available in white, blue and black three styles, we focus on the style of this Panerai Luminor Marina Quaranta 40mm Blue Dial replica PAM01270.

The Case

The Panerai Luminor Marina Quaranta watch replica continues the iconic aesthetic elements of the series, with a matte cushion-shaped case, one-piece cast lugs, polished bezel and crown bridge guards.

Panerai has produced models in this size before, the Luminor Marina replica PAM 048 for example is 40mm in diameter (excluding the crown and crown guard), 16mm thick, and 48mm lug-to-lug across the wrist. So while Panerai has not detailed dimensions beyond diameter in their supplied press release, I would expect the diameter and lug-to-lug to be the same. The question that remains is whether or not the watch has been slimmed down through its newer caliber and decreased water resistance. The PAM 048 had 300 metres of water resistance, while these new Panerai Luminor Marina Quaranta watches offer a lesser but still competent depth rating of 100 metres – of course further secured by the brand's signature safety-lock crown protection. It is my hope that the lower water- resistance means a slightly slimmer case, a respectable tradeoff if it turns out to be the case. 

As for its finish, the stainless-steel cases and caseb acks are satin brushed while their bezels are mirror polished – a hint of elegance for what was traditionally a tool watch, but as we all know many have been known to dress up their Panerai watches as well.

The Dial

The dial of this Panerai Luminor Marina replica adopts Panerai's classic sandwich structure, the upper layer is hollowed out, and the lower layer is filled with luminous paint, so that the time can be clearly read both day and night. There is a date display window at the 3 o’clock position of the dial, and a small seconds dial at the symmetrical nine o’clock position, showing a unique aesthetic style. The blue dial is also decorated with sunburst patterns, which will emit different dazzling luster with different light exposure.

The Strap

In order to meet the needs of the largest number of consumers, the three watches launched this time are equipped with different straps according to their respective dial designs. Panerai is equipped with a dark blue alligator leather strap for the blue radial dial style, and a tobacco-colored calfskin strap is also available, allowing the wearer to switch styles at will.

The Movement

Inside each of the Panerai Luminor Marina Quaranta replica watch is the automatic Panerai caliber P.900, which notably includes an Incabloc™ anti-shock device and 72 hours of power reserve. If the base is in fact the OP XXXIV, then the P.900 caliber is in turn based on a Val-Flurier ebauche. Regardless of origins, it is definitely a quality caliber that should provide accurate, efficient, and robust performance.

Price

The Panerai Luminor Marina Quaranta pieces are available at $7,100 USD.
