Preowned RARE Panerai Luminor 44mm Chrono “Daylight” Full Set Box and Papers (2 Straps) – PAM00356

Description

Step into the world of elite Swiss watchmaking with this exceptional Panerai Luminor Chrono Daylight PAM00356 — a highly sought-after reference that perfectly captures Panerai’s bold military heritage and unmistakable Italian design language. Built in limited numbers and no longer in production, the PAM00356 has quietly become a collector favorite, prized for its striking “Daylight” dial, robust 44mm Luminor case, and legendary crown-guard bridge — a signature feature that instantly identifies a Panerai watch from across the room. What makes this example especially desirable is its complete full set with original box and papers — a major value driver for collectors and an increasingly rare find as these pieces disappear into long-term collections. For the beginning collector, this is an ideal entry into serious horology: a recognizable brand with real history, strong secondary market demand, and timeless wrist presence. Panerai watches are sought after for their uniqueness, quality, and craftsmanship. It is a true, time-tested timepiece. For the seasoned Paneristi, the PAM00356 represents a discontinued chronograph reference that continues to gain appreciation for its scarcity and classic styling. Panerai’s legacy traces back to supplying precision instruments to the Italian Navy, and that DNA is alive in every detail of this watch — purposeful, powerful, and built to last. This is more than a timepiece. It’s a statement. A heritage brand. A rare opportunity to own a disappearing Panerai classic.
