PANERAI
Customers can purchase the Florentine watchmaker’s timepieces and accessories by calling a sales advisor

be picked up via secured complimentary delivery or from Panerai boutiques. Highlights of this added service are the exclusive online offers of watches and accessories. Among them are three e-commerce exclusive camouflage straps for Luminor 44mm models, which are also available
through phone sales. Inspired by the Italian navy uniform, the straps are made
of black rubber shell and upcycled camouflage fabric.
Cool Contrasts
The Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet collection evolves with two new Selfwinding Chronographs that boast a new material combination and dial finish. Pushing the manufacturing and hand-finishing of the collection’s signature case to new heights, the maison combines a black ceramic middle case with a gold bezel, lugs and caseback. Offered in pink or white gold, both variants are complemented with a smoked dark grey dial adorned with a vertical satin-finished base, which matches the refined satin-brushed case. Both models are powered by the Calibre 4401 with a power reserve of 70 hours. The manufacture’s latest in-house integrated chronograph with column wheel and flyback function enables the wearer to restart the chronograph without stopping or resetting it first.
