Panerai Radiomir PAM198

The PAM198 represents Panerai's Radiomir 8 Days model executed in platinum, distinguishing it from standard steel variants within the Radiomir 8 Day series. This reference utilizes precious metal construction throughout its case and bezel components. The 45mm case is crafted from polished platinum, paired with a matching polished platinum bezel. A 1.9mm sapphire crystal protects the dial, while water resistance extends to 100 meters. The watch operates on Panerai's Calibre OP XIV movement, providing the extended power reserve characteristic of the 8 Days designation. This reference appeals to collectors seeking Panerai's signature Radiomir case profile in precious metal execution. The platinum construction elevates the PAM198 above standard production models, positioning it as a higher-tier offering within the Radiomir 8 Day collection. The substantial 45mm case size maintains the proportions expected from this model family while the precious metal composition adds material value.
