Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 BMG-TECH 3 Days Automatic PAM 692 Replica Watch

It looks just like a regular stainless steel Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 BMG-TECH 3 Days Automatic PAM 692 Replica Watch but with a blue dial and the fancy words “BMG-TECH” on the dial. It is not even the first Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 watch with a blue dial – the Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 Regatta (PAM371) from 2011 was one of the earlier Submersible watches to have a blue dial. So what’s the big deal?

The alloy is subjected to a high-pressure injection process at high temperature and then flash-cooled so quickly that the atoms to not have enough time to rearrange themselves in an ordered, regular structure.

At SIHH 2017, Panerai announced the Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 Replica Watch, which claims to have a 50-year guarantee from the movement needing any kind of lubrication. The case design is identical to the older Panerai Luminor Submersible 1950 watches, which is to say that it is big and brawny. The crystal is sapphire, and the watch has a water resistance of 300 meters – what else do you expect from a bona fide dive watch?

BMG-TECH stands for Bulk Metallic Glass and it is a material with a disordered atomic structure made using a special glass-like alloy that contains zirconium, copper, aluminum, titanium, and nickel.

It is this disordered structure that gives BMG-TECH its properties. It is harder and lighter than steel, and it is also extremely resistant to corrosion, external shocks, and magnetic fields.

Now that you know what Panerai Luminor Submersible Replica Watch is, let’s get down to the rest of the watch. The entire case – all 47mm of it including the uni-directional rotating bezel, as well as the crown and the device protecting the crown – are all made out of BMG-TECH. The case back, however, is titanium.

The alloy is subjected to a high-pressure injection process at high temperature and then flash-cooled so quickly that the atoms to not have enough time to rearrange themselves in an ordered, regular structure.

Panerai Replica Watch says it is so strong that it will preserve its appearance over time. But more importantly, this means that BMG-TECH is a great material for use in a dive watch, where strength and resistance, especially to corrosion, is imperative.
