Part II: Workshop of Ideas - Contemporary Panerai
The second part of the exhibition details Panerai watches from the 1997 acqusition till today and includes most of the notable watches from the brand since then. The 2011 watches like the Bronzo are shown as well. It also shows all the 'manifattura' movements, including the tourbillons. And also Mike Horn's banged up Arctos which he wore on his trek across the pole.
Also in the room were watchmakers demonstrating various watchmaking skills.
One of the watchmakers was putting together the tourbillon cage.
