News: Panerai Radiomir 10 Days GMT limited editions in Pt, white or rose gold (with pricing)

Fresh off the press is the precious metal trio of Panerai Radiomir 10 Days GMT in platinum, white and rose gold, PAM495, PAM496 and PAM497 respectively. All are housed in the 45 mm Radiomir case with the P.2003 movement that has second time zone, power reserve and date functions.

Unusually all three watches have sandwich dials, but with applied hour numerals, which is uncommon for Panerai. The first is the Radiomir 10 Days GMT Platino (PAM495), a platinum case limited edition of 100 pieces. It has a black dial with ecru Luminova, along with the brown “Jules Verne” nubuck alligator strap. Retail is SGD87,100, or about USD70,800.

Then there is the Radiomir 10 Days GMT Oro Bianco (PAM496), which is limited to 250 pieces. Paired with the white gold case is a black dial and a black strap; this is the least vintage looking of the three. The list price is SGD58,200, which is about USD47,400.

Also limited to 250 pieces is the Radiomir 10 Days GMT Oro Rosso (PAM497) in red gold. The dial is brown with ecru Luminova. The list price is SGD54,600, or approximately USD44,400.

Typically I can’t appreciate the Panerai models with an all Arabics dial, but in this case the applied numerals give it a slightly more refined feel which suits the precious metal case (and the price). For those who want something more subdued, the similarly new Radiomir Composite watches in 45 and 47 mm are an interesting proposition. – SJX

News: Artya Werewolf Blood and Bullet for Halloween

ArtyA, the company that brought us the Bye-Bye Euro with a dial made from shredded notes, has just announced its Halloween special, the Artya Werewolf Blood and Bullet. The press release announcing it is worth reproducing in its entirety: Against werewolves of the Modern Age. ArtyA’s latest unique piece combines a cut-up silver bullet; renowned for its ability to kill werewolves, and the blood of its victim. The look is absolutely scary. The 47 mm case features a target sight engraved on the bezel and a high end automatic Swiss made movement. The dial contains a handmade silver bullet that is forged, engraved and rubbed with garlic in Geneva during a full moon night. It also contains its victims’ blood. The watch is created especially for Halloween, to protect us from the werewolves of modern times.

The self-deprecating humour is priceless. ArtyA watches are fairly inexpensive, and sell for CHF2400 to CHF3900 on their webstore.
