The Panerai Luminor Tre Giorni PAM01628 features Panerai's iconic 47mm diameter case, inspired by the design of watches worn by Italian Navy commandos during underwater missions. The large diameter significantly improves the readability of the watch, a feature essential for tool watches. The case is decorated with matte and oxidized aging effects, which are specially treated to reduce reflections and enhance the tough texture. The oxidized aging effect is hand-polished by skilled craftsmen, giving the case a slightly aged appearance, reminiscent of the unique texture of Panerai's antique watches over time.

The oxidized aging effect of the stainless steel bezel and case contrasts with the frosted finishing of the movement's stainless steel plywood, the crown guard and the buckle, adding details and layering to the watch. The gray-black gradient grain sandwich dial, with beige Super-LumiNova@ luminous hands and hour markers, complements these two stainless steel treatments. In the late 1930s, Panerai created a sandwich dial structure to improve the readability of the dial in low-light environments. At that time, the dial consisted of three parts: the upper disk was perforated, the lower layer was coated with luminous material, and the two layers were connected by a transparent Plexiglas@ organic glass disk. Due to the high brightness of the watch, underwater commandos had to cover the surface with mud or seaweed when performing missions at night to avoid exposure. Today, the structure of the sandwich dial has evolved and consists of a double disk, with a lower layer coated with Super-LumiNova@ luminous coating.
The PAM01628 watch is equipped with the P.3000 manual winding movement with a three-day power reserve achieved by two barrels. The structure of this manual winding movement is known for its robustness, reliability and deep connection with the brand's history. The manual winding mechanism allows users to interact more with the watch. The P.3000 movement is equipped with a large balance wheel with a diameter of 11.7 mm, which vibrates 21,600 times per hour, effectively improving the accuracy and stability of the watch, and is fixed by a cross-bridge to enhance durability. The movement has a diameter of 37.2 mm, and its mechanical beauty and exquisite details can be seen through the transparent case back.
The design and construction of the P.3000 movement are deeply influenced by Panerai's antique movements in the 1960s. It reproduces the functions and aesthetic characteristics of the classic movement, including open bridges to clearly show the precise mechanical operation inside the movement. The movement finishing process is simple and practical, reflecting the practical needs of the timing tool originally designed for naval divers. The watch is water-resistant to 10 bar (about 100 meters) and is strictly tested under conditions where the pressure value is 25% higher than the calibration data to ensure that it meets Panerai's strict standards.
