Rubber B produces custom rubber watch bands for timepieces from a variety of leading global watchmakers, including Rolex, Tudor, and Panerai, as well as several others. Our complete product catalog features straps in a plethora of different colors, textures, and styles, and each one of our watch bands is made solely from 100% vulcanized rubber.
The Panerai Submersible Blu Notte (PAM01068) was a surprise to old-school Panerai watch fans. The Panerai Blu Notte is a newer, dressier variant of the past tour watches like Luminors or Radiomirs, but this watch still stays faithful to that original design. The PAM01068 features a midnight blue metallic sunray dial and a noticeable crown guard.
Crown
The crown guard on the Panerai Blu Notte has a lever that you pull, and when you release it you are then able to adjust the crown and change the time by winding the watch to get the second hand moving. The crown is an obvious element of the Panerai Blu Notte.
Bracelet
A strongly unique feature of the Panerai Submersible Blu Notte is the bracelet. A Panerai with a steel bracelet is not usually associated with the brand, most horology enthusiasts think of a leather or rubber watch strap when they think of Panerai watches. The bracelet on the Panerai Blu Notte is different from the bracelets on watches like Rolex with its Oyster Bracelet or a Patek Philippe Nautilus steel bracelet.
The bracelet on the Panerai Submersible Blu Notte is interleaved and is a complex bracelet that includes contrasting finishes. The Blu Notte bracelet is satin brushed with polished center links. The bracelet pieces are on the slimmer side when compared to the heftiness of the case.
Case
The case on the Panerai Submersible Blu Notte is satin brushed, it has an ergonomic case construction with a rounded feel to it. Iconic Panerais are often described as blocky and masculine and heavier on the wrist. The Panerai Submersible Blu Notte has a more circular look including how the case connects to the lugs. There are no sharp angles on the case whatsoever on this watch.
Lugs
The lugs stick out from the case, it’s a mono construction case meaning the lugs are actually attached to the case even though they appear separated at first glance. The Panerai Submersible Blu Notte is 51.4 mm lug to lug, much larger than usual for Panerai, but the height of the case is a very slim 13.3mm which ensures more comfort on the wrist. The Panerai Submersible Blu Notte lugs are unique in that they do not lift off the wrist and are flatter on the back.
Bezel
The bezel on the Panerai Submersible Blu Notte has the tone of a tool watch. Despite the bezel being more rounded, it still has a utilitarian feel. The bezel is made of matte ceramic and has a steel inlay. Another exciting feature about this bezel is the 15 minute track. Most importantly for divers tracking their oxygen, the 15 minute track of oxygen time is indicated by fine steel inlays that represent each minute, which adds a dressy touch aesthetically to the watch as well.
Movement
The movement on the Panerai Submersible Blu Notte includes the Panerai p900 caliber. It has a power reserve of up to 72 hours which is perfect for weekend adventures by passing the Monday through Friday test. The Panerai Submersible Blu Notte is a legitimate diver watch because it has up to 300mm water resistance.
