Continuing the trend of producing handsome watches is a marriage of true vintage style and rugged, modern machining in a brilliant reinterpretation of the 1950 3 Days GMT Ceramic Automatic from Panerai. Housed in a brushed black 44mm ceramic case is Panerai’s excellent in-house mechanical P.9001 movement powering the date, seconds, minutes, hours, and a fourth GMT timezone hand.
