Panerai Luminor Base PAM00112 – 44mm – Manual Wind – 2011 – Full Set – Sandwich Dial

Info

The Panerai Luminor Base PAM00112 represents the purest expression of Panerai’s design language: bold lines, a clean dial, and the iconic crown-protecting lever that has made the Luminor one of the most recognizable watches in the world. Introduced in the early 2000s, this model embodies the Maison’s “base” philosophy: hours and minutes only, no complications, and the full impact of an unmistakable aesthetic.

With its 44 mm polished steel case and sandwich-construction black dial, the PAM112 pays tribute to the military heritage of the historic Panerai models created for the divers of the Italian Navy. The transparent caseback reveals the manual-wind calibre OP X, based on the trusted ETA Unitas 6497, finely finished and personalized by the manufacture.

Today, the Luminor Base 112 is highly appreciated by collectors and enthusiasts for its aesthetic purity: no date, no seconds, just perfect symmetry and the iconic presence of Panerai. A timepiece that fully captures the authentic spirit of the Florentine brand—ideal for those who want to experience Panerai’s philosophy in its most essential form.

Case, Bracelet, Dial & Glass

General Overview: This Panerai Luminor Base PAM00112 immediately impresses with its excellent overall condition, enhanced by a professional polishing performed by Panerai technicians, which restored brightness to the case while preserving the original factory lines.
What further distinguishes this example is its complete set, which also includes an additional rubber strap—however, the latter shows clear signs of wear and an extra hole made by the previous owner.

The 44 mm stainless-steel case is in excellent condition, with surfaces that retain their original factory finish and no notable signs of wear. The smooth steel bezel is equally well preserved, reflecting the clean aesthetics of the reference, while the signature satin-finished crown-protecting lever completes the unmistakable Panerai silhouette.

The original black leather strap is in excellent condition, showing minimal wear. It has been sanitized using professional products and an ozone treatment, and comes paired with the stainless-steel pin buckle, which is also in excellent condition with no visible scratches.

The black sandwich dial, a defining element of this reference, features perfectly preserved luminescent numerals and indexes, ensuring outstanding legibility and reinforcing the essential, instantly recognizable character of the Luminor Base. Every detail appears crisp and harmonious, in line with Panerai’s minimalist design identity.

Protecting the dial is a scratch-free sapphire crystal, offering impeccable transparency and a clear view under all lighting conditions.
