Luminor North Pole GMT : PAM00252

The Panerai Luminor North Pole GMT, reference PAM00252, was released in 2006 as a special edition model in the Luminor collection. This watch features a robust 44.0 mm stainless steel case with a solid caseback, reflecting its durable design intended for adventurous expeditions. Its aesthetic is characterized by Panerai's iconic cushion-shaped case and prominent crown-protecting bridge, which contribute to its distinctive and recognizable style. As part of the celebrations for Mike Horn's North Pole expedition with Borge Ousland, this model was produced in a limited run of 500 pieces. The watch is equipped with a GMT function, allowing the wearer to track multiple time zones—an essential feature for global explorers. The dial displays clear and legible indices and hands, optimized for visibility in low-light conditions often encountered in extreme environments. Overall, the PAM00252 represents a combination of Panerai's traditional design elements and practical features suited for the challenges of Arctic exploration.
