Thanks to this special carbon fiber, the material offers a consistent aesthetic. Each carbon fiber sheet is shaped by overlapping it at different angles, which further increases the performance of the case material.

Dial and Hand Details

The 44 mm diameter light brown dial matches the Arabic numerals and lumeli hour markers of the same color. They are all filled with edge frame processing outside the lume layer, and the fluorescent effect is identical to the original. The general layout design of the dial is again in the classic Panerai sense; The small seconds dial with a date window at the 3 position and a blue second hand at the 9 position reveals Panerai's classic style. Moreover, the blue torpedo-shaped minute hand on the small seconds dial at position 9 becomes the only contrast element of the entire dial, emphasizing the sports character of this Panerai watch.
