From the union of Officine Panerai and the world of classic sailing the Luminor 1950 Regatta 3 Days Chrono Flyback Automatic Titanio watch was born. This is a chronograph with an automatic movement and a three-day power reserve, fitted with the Regatta countdown function, specially created for yacht racing starts.
The chronograph hands are central and distinguished from each other by different, easily recognised colours, while the orange hand of the hours rotates within the small dial at three o'clock, mirroring the small seconds dial at nine o'clock. The flange carries not only the scale of up to 15 minutes for the countdown to the start, with the five final minutes picked out in orange, but also the tachymeter scale expressed in knots, which enable the speed of the yacht to be measured over a defined distance.
