Panerai Radiomir PAM185

The Panerai Radiomir PAM185 is a notable reference within the Radiomir collection, distinguished by its chronograph complication and precious metal construction. It represents a more intricate offering compared to the time-only Radiomir models, appealing to collectors seeking a blend of Panerai's historical design language with enhanced functionality. This reference is part of a limited series, underscoring its exclusivity and appeal to dedicated enthusiasts. Its design maintains the classic Radiomir cushion-shaped case and wire lugs, while incorporating the additional elements required for a chronograph display. This particular reference features a 42mm white gold case, providing a substantial yet refined presence on the wrist. It houses a manual-winding mechanical movement, specifically the Minerva 13-22 caliber, known for its column-wheel chronograph mechanism. The movement operates at 18,000 vibrations per hour and offers a power reserve of approximately 55 hours. The watch is fitted with a sapphire crystal, ensuring durability and clarity for the black dial. As a limited edition, the PAM185 holds particular interest for collectors of Panerai's more complex and rare pieces. Its combination of a precious metal case, a sophisticated chronograph movement, and the distinctive Radiomir aesthetic positions it as a significant piece within the brand's historical and contemporary offerings. The manual-winding Minerva movement further enhances its collector appeal, connecting it to traditional watchmaking craftsmanship.
