The Officine Panerai Luminor 1950 8 Days GMT – 44 MM begins a new family of products that exclusively uses in-house Officine Panerai movements. Powered by the P.2002 which is named after the year when the caliber was developed, the Reference PAM00233 has a stellar 8-day power reserve. The movement features a KIF Parechoc® anti-shock device, 21 jewels, a Glucydur® balance, and it operates at 28,800 alternations per hour.
The PAM00233 has an hour and minute hand, and a small seconds indicator at the 9 o’clock position which also has a 24 hour hand with AM/PM indicators. This allows the wearer to keep track of a 2nd time-zone while traveling or doing business in two locales. At the 3 o’clock position it has a small date aperture. Above the 6 o’clock hour it has an 8-day power reserve indicator.
The Luminor 1950 has sapphire crystal on the front and the back of the timepiece. The black dial looks stellar with the green luminous Arabic numerals at 12 and 6 o’clock and luminous hour markers at the other positions. The case is a 44mm brushed steel case made from AISI 316L polished steel. The trademark Panerai crown lock-down mechanism protects the large winding crown. The reference PAM00233 has a 24/22mm black Alligator strap to match the black dial. It is waterproof to 300 feet.
Rubber B has engineered 8 designer bracelets for the Officine Panerai Luminor 1950 8 Days GMT Acciaio Reference PAM00233. These bracelets are precisely calibrated with “blocked integration” creating a flawless, motionless flush mount to the Panerai case.

Rubber B watch bands are made in Switzerland of pure vulcanized rubber, containing no coating, blends or bonding. This ensures a long-lasting and durable wear even during sporting activities, without causing bleeding.
