Review the Panerai Submariner 1950 3 Days 47mm Titanium Watch Replica

Review the Panerai Submariner 1950 3 Days 47mm Titanium Watch Replica


Last year (2019), Panerai intensively renewed its professional dive watches, directly separating them from the original LUMINOR series (i.e. Panerai with bridges) and establishing a separate professional dive watch series, the SUBMERSIBLE dive series. Panerai's new Submariner series dive watches have been updated from the case, dial and movement, covering all sizes from 42mm to 47mm, which is a very strong update. This is a new Panerai Submariner 1950 3 Days 47mm Titanium watch replica PAM01305.

The Case

The first thing I would like to say about the new Panerai Submariner replica 1305 is that the wearing experience has been improved significantly. Although it is a big watch, it is very comfortable to wear and very light in weight. Case in point, the copy Panerai Luminor Submersible is also available in 44 mm and 42 mm sizes, but the one I have here is the 47 mm titanium edition. While the 47 mm feels large on paper, when you get to use it, it feels very much like a normal size watch, and this is because of the design of the watch and of course the case is extremely lightweight thanks to the titanium.

I also like the comfort aided by the lug design of Panerai’s 1950-style case, which has the downward sloping lugs that exit from a lower position which is closer to the wrist on the case. While on some level, this gives an impression of a floating case and adds to the impression that the watch is not really big, it does feel big and you have to be choosy on what you wear because the hight of the case means that it will get on the way of your attire.

I like the model’s uni-rotational bezel for its absolute functionality. Personally, I prefer aligning the bezel to the minutes hand to achieve a chronograph function as it gives the most convenience for me. The tactile feel of turning the bezel is good but could have been made better relative to the price of the watch. I also noticed that the bezel does not perfectly align with the dial markers but of course, you will not really notice it in normal use. This is not a big deal since we have rounded indices and the markers on the bezel are spot on. Being a Panerai diver, the watch boasts of an impressive water tightness down to 300 meters.

The Dial

What I really like about the dial is its legibility. All the markings and hands on the black dial are white, apart from the Panerai blue small seconds hand at 9 o’clock. While this blue accent may feel a bit distant to the whole design concept of the watch replica, more like black and white, the more you look at it, the easier you will notice that it brings a kind of cool aspect to the rather bland dial of the watch replica. The simplicity is spot on, I always like this part. 

Moreover, the legibility under normal lighting conditions is superb as well as in the dark, thanks to the use of Super-LumiNova applied to the markers, hands and graduated scale. Being a tool-ish watch replica, the bezel glows with a bright blue color instead of the traditional fluorescent green present on the other markers on the dial. I like this design because it practically separates the bezel reading from the other aspect of the watch therefore to the professional diver, this adds more convenience. As to a normal wearer, it offers some sort of style or a clearer reference point. What it does really good is avoiding any possibility of confusion in calculating times of immersion for the professional crowd.

The Movement

Powering the Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Titanio replica PAM01305 is the automatic mechanical, P.9010 calibre. Compared to the older P.9000 caliber the P.9010 is noticeably thinner and has more jewels, 31 in number compared to the 28 of the older caliber. Also, the older caliber did not have the full dual-link balance springs that this new powerhouse has resulting in better protection to the movement from external shocks. The spring barrels are constantly wound by a bi-directional oscillating weight.

The movement offers two very useful functions: the mechanism for stopping the balance wheel when synchronizing the watch, and the device for changing the time quickly. The time zone function that allows you to drive the hour hand independently forwards or backwards without actually stopping the movement is superb. With this, you can also drive the date forwards or backwards without hazard to the movement or without interfering with the running of the watch. Pull the crown to its extremity and you hack the seconds which is really great to achieve a spot on adjustment. 

As for the new PAM01305 replica, since there are both new and old models in circulation, you should be careful to distinguish between the new and old models to avoid buying the wrong one (the new one features an opaque bottom and a blue dial with English and 300m water-resistant lettering).

The Strap

I really like this strap because it is very comfortable. And I wish all watches have proper straps offered on the get-go like this one offered by Panerai that is not only supple but very versatile. Moreover, the replica Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 3 Days Automatic Titanio is supplied with a sturdy and fully functional black rubber strap. It also features a titanium pin buckle that is very user-friendly and mates perfectly with the whole style of the watch. Comfort wise, if you are averse with metallic surfaces, the case itself already features hypoallergenic properties, and the bellow system on the strap means that sweat or body oils are dispersed efficiently. The flexibility of the strap is an absolute pleasure to experience.

Finally, switching straps is very easy as the lugs feature the brand’s quick release system. You just need to activate the trigger on the underside and then you push through horizontally to remove the strap and you can use anything that is compatible with the watch.
