Radiomir Panerai

45mm Reference: PAM00210

I have been absolutely fascinated with the evolution of Panerai  design language , and the modern Radiomir PAM00210 is one of my favorite models. I created the illustration below years ago to show how the original Panerai cushion case evolved from a Rolex Oyster pocket watch. You can learn much more about the history and evolution of Panerai design language by reading The Complete History Of Panerai.

By the way, notice how similar the modern PAM00210 (pictured above) looks compared to its Rolex Reference 2533 Case Radiomir pictured below which was made in 1938!!! It is also fascinating to note that Rolex did not develop the now trademark, half crescent winding crown guard mechanism for Panerai until 1946, when they introduced the 6152/1.
