Panerai Left Crown Model: A Collector's Edition Vintage Watch

Panerai launched its first watch with a left-hand crown in 1960, initially designed for military use by divers and frogmen. This design has gradually become part of Panerai's iconic aesthetic. Buy Panerai Luminor clone watches online, buy replica watches at twatchclone.ru.


The durable stainless steel case features a polished bezel that contrasts with the brushed texture of the crown. The size has been upgraded from 47mm to 44mm, a reduction that will fit most watch enthusiasts. While 47mm is a classic Panerai size, the more recently popular 44mm and 45mm sizes offer greater comfort for everyday wear. The black sandwich dial has a matte finish, exuding simplicity and sophistication. To accommodate left-handed wear, the small seconds subdial has been moved from 9 o'clock to 3 o'clock, and the inscription "8 GIORNI (8-day power reserve)" is printed above 6 o'clock.

The crown of this Panerai clone watch has also been moved to the left, continuing Panerai's classic crown guard design. However, unlike the right-hand crown, this left-hand crown watch has the crown guard's locking lever reversed, requiring it to be pulled upwards. This design also caters to left-handed users. Furthermore, the "REG" and "T.M." lettering commonly found on the crown guard has disappeared, replaced by a brushed finish.

The Panerai P.500 manual-winding movement boasts a 192-hour (8-day) power reserve when fully wound. The movement utilizes a free-sprung balance wheel with adjustable weights and a transverse balance bridge, oscillating at 21,600 vibrations per hour. The finishing follows Panerai's classic style, with extensive brushed finishes covering the bridges, and only openworked areas at the triangular wheel and rotor. The aesthetics are quite appealing. It is water-resistant to 300 meters, easily handling underwater activities.
