Product Information

Full details

The Panerai Submersible Quarantaquattro Bianco is designed for divers and watch enthusiasts seeking a robust, highly legible timepiece with a sophisticated Italian aesthetic. Its key benefit is exceptional performance in extreme depths and low-light conditions, combined with a durable and stylish design. A potential caveat for some users may be the 44mm case size, which might be substantial for smaller wrists. This watch features a 44mm brushed steel case, a white dial for optimal legibility, a uni-directional rotating bezel, and 30 bar water resistance, powered by an automatic movement with a 3-day power reserve.

FAQs

What is the water resistance rating of the Panerai Submersible Quarantaquattro Bianco?

The watch features a water resistance rating of 30 bar (300 meters), making it suitable for professional diving.

How long is the power reserve of the P.9010 calibre movement?

The automatic P.9010 calibre movement provides a power reserve of 3 days (72 hours).

Is the strap interchangeable?

Yes, the watch comes with a military green accordion rubber strap and is compatible with other 24mm Panerai straps.

How do I ensure the watch maintains its water resistance?

Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down or pushed in after setting the time or date. Avoid using the crown under water. Regular servicing is also crucial.

What is the diameter of the case?

The case diameter is 44mm.

Are the dial markers luminous?

Yes, the dial features luminous circular and pill-shaped hour markers for excellent legibility in low-light conditions.

What is the origin of Panerai watches?

Founded in 1860, Panerai watches have Italian design roots and were originally developed to meet the demanding requirements of the Italian Royal Navy.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped or is losing time.

Ensure the watch has been worn sufficiently to wind the automatic movement, or manually wind the crown. If the issue persists, it may require servicing. Check that the crown is fully secured.

Difficulty setting the date or time.

Gently pull the crown out to the first position to set the date and to the second position to set the time. Do not force the crown. If resistance is met, refer to the user manual or contact an authorized service center.

Reduced luminosity of markers.

Luminous markers require exposure to light to 'charge'. If they appear dim, expose the watch to a bright light source for a period. Luminosity will naturally decrease over time and is dependent on the duration of light exposure.

Water ingress or condensation under the crystal.

This indicates a breach in water resistance. Immediately avoid any further water contact and have the watch inspected by an authorized Panerai service center. Do not attempt to dry it yourself, as this could cause further damage.

Pros and Cons

  • Exceptional legibility due to the white dial and luminous elements.
  • High water resistance rating suitable for professional diving.
  • Durable construction with a brushed steel case.
  • Reliable automatic movement with a 3-day power reserve.
  • Distinctive Italian design with practical functionality.

Cons

  • The 44mm case size may be large for individuals with smaller wrists.

  • As a luxury timepiece, it represents a significant investment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The watch is powered by an automatic movement, meaning it self-winds with the motion of the wearer's wrist. To start the watch if it has stopped, gently shake it for a minute or wind the crown manually (pull out to the first position for date and time setting). Ensure the crown is fully pushed back in after setting to maintain water resistance.

Compatibility: This is a standalone mechanical watch and does not require electronic compatibility. The included military green accordion rubber strap can be interchanged with other 24mm Panerai straps, subject to compatibility.

Care: To maintain the watch's performance and appearance:

  1. Water Resistance: Always ensure the crown is screwed down or pushed in completely. Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water.
  2. Cleaning: Clean the case and bracelet with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials. For the rubber strap, use mild soap and water.
  3. Servicing: It is recommended to have the watch serviced by an authorized Panerai service center every 3-5 years to ensure optimal mechanical performance and water resistance.
