Lo Scienziato-Luminor 1950 Tourbillon GMT tourbillon three-dimensionally printed titanium case, using ‘direct metal laser sintering’, is Panerai’s Panerai Neuchatel watch factory’s breakthrough One of the watches. Lo Scienziato, launched in 2016, is the first mechanical watch to use this technology. In addition to retaining the original features, the new version has also been fine-tuned. The new model’s blue hands blend perfectly with the metallic tone of the titanium case. The outer edge of the watch and the stitching of the black leather strap are also selected in blue, which highlights the sports style, which coincides with its high-tech specifications.

After 2016, Lo Scienziato-Luminor 1950 Tourbillon GMT has launched a new version, which mainly changes the details of the hands, the color matching on the inside of the bezel, and the color matching of the strap stitching.

The new Lo Scienziato’s lightweight design is amazing, but it also has multiple functions, including hours, minutes, small seconds, day and night display, two-day time, six-day power reserve and case back power reserve display, and tourbillon escapement system. The ultimate lightweight know-how comes from the ingenious craftsmanship of the Laboratorio di Idee at Panerai Chateau Manufacture, creating an extremely delicate case and P.2005 / T movement, making the watch light and weightless. In addition, it also has the classic characteristics of Panerai.

Although the material is often heard of titanium, Paner Marine uses innovative direct metal laser sintering technology and a large range of hollowed-out movements, making the model much lighter than ordinary titanium watches.

The three-dimensionally printed titanium case uses DMLS technology, which is extremely lightweight and durable. The Luminor 1950 case has a classic diameter of 47 mm and is made of titanium. It has corrosion resistance and is about 40% lighter than stainless steel. In order to further reduce the weight of the watch, the case uses innovative technology to create a complex geometric structure. It does not compromise on water resistance (100 meters), stiffness or even resistance to twisting. The brand uses a technology called ‘Direct Metal Laser Sintering’ to build a three-dimensional structure of titanium powder layer by layer through fiber optic lasers. Each layer of titanium powder structure is only 0.02 millimeters thick. It is fused and formed into each other. It is transformed into a form that can be reached by various non-traditional craftsmanship.

Compared with the traditional brass movement, the PAM00767 uses a hollow design and introduces titanium to make the movement, so the movement weight can be greatly reduced.

P.2005 / T is based on the P.2005 manual winding movement with Panerai’s patented tourbillon as the model. It has a hollow design and a titanium bridge and plywood. Because the material density is about half lower than that of parts made of brass in general, the overall weight of the movement is about 35% lighter than the hollow version of P.2005 / S.

The tourbillon frame of the watch rotates around the vertical axis, and the rotation period is shortened to 30 seconds, which is different from the traditional tourbillon.

Elements such as the hour hand, which traditionally form a traditional dial, are directly connected to the movement or the outer edge of the watch. Instead of the traditional dial design, with the exquisite hollow bridge, plywood and barrel, it is tempered into an extremely lightweight watch. . At 9 o’clock, there is a small seconds dial with a small rotating display to show the operation of the tourbillon. Another small dial at 3 o’clock is the day and night display with a central second time zone hand (two places of time). The six-day power reserve comes from a set of three barrels. The back of the movement is equipped with a special braking force storage display, which is clearly visible through the large sapphire display window. The exquisite hollowing process makes people appreciate the charming details of the front and back of the watch, such as the winding and unwinding process of the hairspring in each barrel, the intricate and interlocking gears, and the eye-catching tourbillon frame rotation Panerai’s patented tourbillon is essentially different from the conventional layout. In order to more accurately offset the effect of gravity on the escapement system and make the operation more precise, the tourbillon frame is on a vertical rather than parallel balance wheel axis Rotating, it takes 30 seconds to make one turn, instead of the one minute that is common in a typical tourbillon.
