Panerai, a brand that has rejected trends and danced to its own tune for as long as we can remember, seems to have finally thrown in the towel, and we couldn’t be happier. The brand is quintessentially known for its sleek Italian sensibility, recognisable design details, and substantially large-sized watches. But no matter how much one loves the brand and its timepieces, not everybody can wear a watch that’s 45 or 47mm big, leave alone 49. However, the last few years have witnessed Panerai humbling with its case sizes with the release of watches like Luminor Due 42, Submersible Bronzo 42, and Luminor Marina Quaranta with a case sized at 40mm.

Released in 2021, Luminor Marina Quaranta is the smallest-sized watch in the Luminor Marina collection that mostly inhabits 44mm models. Its stainless steel case dons a familiar cushion-shaped case with the signature crown guard. The dial also carries the signature sandwich construction with luminous indexes and hour markers. Due to the downsizing, the dial appears to be more calibrated with a neatly positioned date aperture at three and a small-seconds counter at nine. The bright lume and the clean configuration bolster enhanced legibility.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
