Crafted for adventures. Panerai’s history was shaped by the needs of the Italian Navy, that it has supplied with precision instruments and watches for years. Designing tool watches, robust products for facing the most extreme situations, is the brand’s raison d’être. This rugged character made Panerai the perfect companion for Mike’s Horn expeditions. Following Arktos (2002-2004), the North Pole Winter expedition (2006) and Pangea (2008-2012), Panerai will be a partner of the Pole2Pole expedition. In this new enterprise, the South African-Swiss explorer circumnavigates the world from pole to pole with a new special edition Panerai strapped on his wrist, the PAM00719.
