Panerai Submersible 1950 Titanio Black Dial Titanium Watch, 47mm
$10,700.00
Solid and strong, with unrivalled visibility even at great depths and a uniquely distinctive appearance: the Panerai Submersible watch is a professional diver's watch drawing inspiration from the history of the brand, but looking forward to the future, presenting innovative technical solutions. With the Submersible, Panerai renews with its great tradition of epic exploits in the depths of the sea. The design of the bezel is inspired by that of the watch created by Officine Panerai in 1956 for the Egyptian Navy known as “L’Egiziano”. With the Luminor Submersible, Officine Panerai reinterprets this gloriuos past proposing a water-resistence of 300 meters (30 bar) and a function of crucial utility for the divers: a rotating bezel to calculate the duration of the dive. The bezel rotates in clicks of precisely one minute and only in one direction, to avoid the risk that accidental shocks could misleadingly change the reading of the dive's duration.
Light, strong and hypoallergenic, the remarkable physical, mechanical and corrosion-resistant qualities of titanium have made this metal one of the most valued in fine watchmaking, as well as a material of choice for the military, aeronautical and aerospace industries.
The automatic P.9010 calibre, entirely developed and created in the Panerai Manufacture in Neuchâtel, has central hour and minute hands, the small seconds dial at 9 o’clock and the date at 3 o’clock. The energy necessary to accumulate a power reserve of three days – the basic standard for Panerai in-house movements – is stored in two spring barrels whose springs are wound by an oscillating weight operating in both directions. Consisting of 200 components including 31 jewels, the calibre has a diameter of 13.75 lignes and it is 6mm thick. The balance, fixed by a bridge with twin supports, oscillates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz). It is associated with the device which stops it as soon as the winding crown is pulled out, enabling the watch to be perfectly synchronised with a reference signal. In the P.9010 calibre the hours can be conveniently adjusted without interfering with the movement of the minute hand, thanks to the device which directly moves only the relative hand in jumps of one hour forward or backwards. This function is very useful when changing time zones or moving between summer time and winter time, and conveniently the adjustment of the hour hand is automatically connected to the date indicator.

Give your watch a quick check on a regular basis, wiping down the face and bracelet with a soft cloth, checking the leather on a strap, and making sure that the strap or bracelet is firmly attached to the watch face. Also, while many watches are water resistant, few are truly waterproof, so if you find that moisture or dust has penetrated the case of your watch, bring it into your local Ben Bridge store where we can have one of our watchmakers clean it out for you.
Our best advice on watch maintenance is to never attempt do-it-yourself repairs, no matter how handy you are or how good the instructions are on Youtube. Watches are super complex little machines and only an expert watchmaker should be trusted to get a watch back into working condition. Attempts by an untrained repair person may seriously damage the watch and can even invalidate factory warranties.
In general, having your watch checked regularly by your Personal Jeweler or watchmaker and serviced according to the manufacturer's guidelines should keep it in excellent shape.
