Moonphase Debuts On Panerai’s Luminor Due

  • October 5, 2022
  • 2 minute read
Panerai Luminor Due Luna

The moonphase, among the most poetic of all horological complications, becomes the centrepiece of the new Luminor Due Luna lineup. The mechanical imitation of our nearest celestial neighbour appears on the dial of a Panerai Luminor Due – part of Panerai’s iconic Luminor collection – for the very first time.

Luminor Due Luna is available in four iterations, all in a 38mm case, which should appeal to a broad spectrum of wearers. Its refined form is equally suited for casual wear as it is for formal occasions. Thus, the watch has the potential to become a key pillar of the Luminor Due range.

In each of the four variations, the moon phase complication is situated at 3 o’clock. It exhibits a rotating disc with a 24 carats moon against a starry midnight blue sky. The four references have distinct aesthetic sensibilities to appeal to a broad audience, both in terms of taste and price point.

Leading the lineup is the Luminor Due Luna Madreperla (PAM01181). As the name suggests, it features a mother of pearl dial. The case is made from Panerai’s Goldtech, an alloy containing platinum and a high percentage of copper. This combination endows the metal with a deep, red tone.

Applied numerals and indexes with white Super-LumiNova appear on the dial, while a blue polished alligator strap gives the watch a lustrous finishing touch. The open caseback reveals the workings of the automatic calibre P.900 within, which boasts three days of power reserve.

There are two Luminor Due Luna references – both with steel cases – featuring white sun-brushed dials with the signature Panerai sandwich structure and beige Super-Luminova within their numerals, indexes, and hands. Of these, one boasts a polished dark pink alligator strap with a polished steel buckle (PAM01180).

The other comes with a Luminor Due steel bracelet (PAM01301). The bracelet-links echo the profile of the trademarked Panerai crown-protection device, a quality accentuated by alternating polished and brushed finishes. Polishing along the edges of the curved links endows the bracelet with added dimension and refinement.

The fourth model also has a steel case, but with a sun-brushed blue sandwich dial (PAM01179). Along with the matching polished blue alligator strap, the watch has a handsome monochrome presence.

Panerai’s Calibre P.900, which powers all four models, measures only 4.2mm thick. It is an automatic movement with a three-day power reserve. Water-resistant to 3 bar (about 30 meters), all Luminor Due Luna references feature the quick release system to permit changing of the straps without using tools. Pressure applied to the back of the strap releases it from the case, and it can be replaced with equal ease.

Building a collection of straps allows Luminor Due Luna to transform its appearance. And the introduction of Luminor Due satin straps, leather straps with a satin-like texture and sheen, further multiplies the options available to owners of Luminor Due Luna or any other watch from the Luminor Due range.
