Here is a new Panerai that is exclusive to China. The PAM840 celebrates it being the Year
of the Dragon, and is limited to only 50 watches. It has a "Sealand"; 'hunter' style 44mm
Luminor case, along with Panerai's crown guard, and locking mechanism. As a side note,
Monochrome.nl also pointed out a very interesting fact about the origin of Hunter cases.
Which evidently were developed to protect the watch crystals of pocket watches during
any damage that could occur while hunting.
Some more specifications of the Sealand Dragon watch include the OP III movement, based
off of the Valjoux 7750, multiple textured steel dial, black hour markers, luminous dot markers,
and hands. All of the detailed engravings that are on the PAM840 were done by James Purdey
and Sons of London as well.
Here is a picture, along with links to Monochrome.nl, and also blog.perpetuelle.com where this
information, and more can be found...
