An attractive but expensive carbon composite chronograph. watch replicas

After launching the PAM01419 SEAL Limited Edition Luminor Chrono Carbotech watch, Panerai is now adding it to the regular production lineup as the Luminor Chrono Carbotech PAM01219. The PAM01219 features the same carbon composite case and ETA-based P.9200 movement, and features a restrained, utilitarian dial with blue accents.

The PAM01219 is a new version of the ETA-powered Panerai chronograph, so while it’s not technically new, its clean design and lightweight carbon composite case are attractive.

Earlier versions of this chronograph were either less interesting, like the steel base model PAM01109, or over-engineered, like the PAM01419 SEAL version with a sniper reticle subdial. Stylistically, PAM01219 is clear and clean, with no superfluous elements.

However, PAM01219 is too expensive. It sells for about $17,000, which is expensive by any measure, especially since most rival brands have quality replicas watches with the same movement for less (and the Tudor Pelagos FXD Chrono is less much). Panerai’s own catalog, meanwhile, includes the PAM00335, which has a ceramic case and an in-house movement with eight-day power and a monopusher chronograph, which makes it a relatively high value.

Large, lightweight and ETA
The PAM01219 has classic Panerai style, and the simple dial is a key part of its appeal. The dial is equally symmetrical, with a 30-minute counter at three o’clock balanced by a constant seconds hand at nine o’clock.

The 44mm case adopts the shape of the Luminor 1950, with a unique bowl-shaped case middle, which is perhaps Panerai’s ideal case size, neither too big nor too small. It’s made from Carbotech, Panerai’s term for carbon fiber reinforced polymer, which is essentially a high-end plastic containing sheets of carbon fiber. fake luxury watches

Carbotech is formed by baking polymer and carbon fiber in an oven, resulting in a lightweight yet strong material that also has a wood grain appearance created by the constituent sheets. According to Panerai, the resulting case is 14% lighter than a similar titanium case.

Hidden beneath the solid titanium case back is the P.9200 movement, which is actually an ETA 2892-A2, topped with a Dubois-Depraz chronograph module.

Easy to service and familiar, it’s one of the more affordable common chronographs found in brands like Breitling and Bell & Ross. Longines also uses a similar movement in its Heritage Classic, albeit with an in-house chronograph module. This movement is typically found in cheaper watches, which is one of the reasons why the PAM01219 is more expensive than it should be. perfect replica watches
