Panerai has announced three watches inspired by the US Navy SEALs from its Luminor collection and two from its Submersible collection. All models will be available exclusively in its boutiques.
The Navy SEALs collection is now available worldwide, originally available exclusively in the US

With a history closely linked to the history of the Italian Navy, Panerai has established itself over the years by creating watches that embody the ideals of challenge, courage, team spirit and adrenaline – values also shared by the Navy SEALs, a modern-day group of heroes of extraordinary training and remarkable exploits in the world of sea.
The collaboration between Panerai and the Navy SEALs has resulted in a collection of watches that embodies the indomitable spirit of the Navy SEALs. Each model is a sports watch developed with this elite unit in mind, and will appeal to professional divers, daring adventurers, and mechanical watch enthusiasts alike. The Navy SEALs collection, which was first released as a US-exclusive product last year, has now been expanded globally with the addition of new models.
Each new collection will be presented with a new Panerai box, designed with a convenient drawer to hold the booklet, guarantee card, second strap and replacement tool. The central section where the watch is placed can be removed and used as a travel pouch, ensuring your watch is protected and safe, something that is especially useful for frequent travelers.
"Luminor Marina Navy SEALs"

Automatic movement (Cal. 9010). 31 jewels. 28,800 vph. Power reserve approximately 3 days. Brunito steel case (44mm diameter, 15.45mm thick). Water resistant to 300m. Price: 1,307,900 yen (tax included). Limited to 862 pieces worldwide. Boutique exclusive.
The Luminor Marina Navy Seals (PAM01412) features a 44mm Brunito Steel case and is a limited edition reproduction available only in the US. The Brunito Steel case is coated with a PVD coating to create a protective film, and each watch is then hand-applied with a vintage finish to enhance the patina of aging. This treatment results in an individual appearance, with no two watches being the same.
This watch features an anthracite dial engraved with the words "NAVY SEALS," and the Navy SEALs emblem is engraved on the case back. The rubber strap is made of high-quality rubber and is highly resistant to oil, abrasion, and corrosion. A bi-material strap is also included as a spare. The movement is the automatic Cal. P. 9010, which has a power reserve of approximately three days. Only 862 pieces will be available in boutiques.
"Luminor Chrono Navy SEALs" and "Luminor Chrono Carbotech™ Navy SEALs"

Automatic (Cal. 9200). 41 jewels. 28,800 vph. Power reserve approximately 42 hours. Brunito steel case (diameter 44mm, thickness 13.43mm). Water resistant to 100m. 1,457,500 yen (tax included). Limited to 562 pieces worldwide. Boutique exclusive.
The Navy SEALs chronograph is available in two 44mm sizes: the Luminor Chrono Navy SEALs (PAM01409) in a Brunito steel case, and the Luminor Chrono Carbotech™ Navy SEALs (PAM01419) in a Carbotech™ case. Panerai's patented Carbotech construction is designed to enhance both beauty and durability.
To form Carbotech™ plates, thin sheets of carbon fiber are compressed under high pressure at controlled temperatures with the polymer PEEK (Polyether Ether Ketone), bonding the composite together. This increases strength and durability. To maintain a uniform aesthetic, extra-long carbon fibers are used, and the sheets are stacked and compressed so that the fibers in each layer are at different angles above and below.

Automatic movement (Cal. 9200). 41 jewels. 28,800 vph. Power reserve approximately 42 hours. Carbotech™ case (diameter 44mm, thickness 13.43mm). Water resistant to 100m. 2,383,700 yen (tax included). Limited to 462 pieces worldwide. Boutique exclusive.
Each model features a shaded anthracite dial inspired by targeting scopes and engraved with the words "NAVY SEALS." It also features a small seconds and a yachting-style tachymeter scale for measuring average sailing speed. It also features a rubber-coated crown, a caseback engraved with the elite unit's crest, and, like the PAM01412, a rubber strap and a bi-material spare strap.
Both models are equipped with the automatic chronograph movement, Cal. P.9200, with the Luminor Chrono Navy SEALs limited to 562 pieces and the Luminor Chrono Carbotech™ Navy SEALs limited to 462 pieces.

The hands and date window numerals are accented with a golden yellow accent color, creating a beautiful contrast with the dial and hour markers while ensuring high visibility. The 44mm stainless steel case features a Navy SEALs emblem engraved on the case back and a black rubber-coated crown. The watch comes with a black rubber strap and a spare bi-material black and gray camouflage strap inspired by Navy uniforms, as well as a tool for easily changing the strap.
