Ignite Your Passion for the Past With Panerai's Radiomir Viaggio Nel Tempo Set and A Trip to Italy

Drawing on its rich history and the spirit of innovation, Panerai takes a bold step in redefining luxury through the “Radiomir Viaggio Nel Tempo Experience Set”. More than just offering two spectacular watches, PAM01729 and PAM01730, this set presents a deeper connection to the brand through an exclusive four-day trip to Italy. The journey takes watch enthusiasts to Panerai’s significant sites-cum-heritage stations.

Set to commemorate the centenary of Panerai’s Piazza San Giovanni boutique in 2026, the Experience Set is a departure from former offerings that were tied to a single watch. Earlier versions focused on emblematic aspects of Panerai’s lineage such as diving, exploration, and the Italian Navy. However, in the shifting tides of the industry, these collections have now evolved to mirror contemporary partnerships, such as the Navy SEALs Submersible Flyback Chronograph PAM1402 and the Submersible Tourbillon GMT Luna Rossa Experience Edition PAM01405.
