Panerai Introduces Entry-Level Luminor 8 Days Watches with P.5000 Movement
Ever since the release of last year's Luminor Marina 8 Days (PAM 510) with the new in-house P.5000 movement, there has been talk of Panerai discontinuing its entry-level Luminor models. The PAM 510 is a doppelganger of the PAM 111, with the exception of the words 8 Days on the dial and the movement underneath, the two watches are practically identical.At this point, it is worth talking a bit about this new P. 5000 movement, which only debuted last year. First and foremost, this is a hand-wound movement that is comprised of 127 components and beats at 3Hz or 21,600bph. The movement, like most other Panerai in-house movements, is fairly large at 15? lignes, but this is necessary because, as you know, Panerai makes large watches. Most significantly, it boasts a power reserve of 8 days and this is achieved by having two barrels in series. Such a configuration allows longer, thinner springs to be used, giving it its long power reserve.This year, Panerai is releasing five new Luminor model

Hi guys,on the verge to pull the trigger. available at my boutique for a reasonable price. planning on pairing it with the 5980. i figure i won't go into their dress watches and these two might be the only Pateks i will own (yeah right!>). i don't want to buy grey market because i tend to flip watches that is not under my name.i was told the collectibility of this piece in the future is highly probable and might be discontinued after some time.i'm aware that this watch is an aquanaut and below the nautilus line but with the complication do you guys think it's worthy to be compared with its more respectable brother?please encourage me and show me those TRAVEL TIMES!
