The three new creations of the Panerai Manufacture in Neuchâtel—the 8 Days Power Reserve Acciaio, the 8 Days Power Reserve Titanio, and the Left-Handed 8 Days Acciaio—are unique, and maintain the Panerai identity. The Acciaio uses the new P.5002 hand-wound calibre, has a stainless steel case and a classic black sandwich dial with the small seconds counter at 9 o’clock. The Titanio has the same functions and design as the steel version, but the case and the device for protecting the winding crown are made of titanium. The left-handed Acciaio has a steel case, black sandwich dial, and a strap of the same colour. Its most distinctive characteristic is the positioning of the winding crown, and its related protecting device at 9 o’clock.

The watch offers two-time zones on two separate dials, which is synced with the concept of reversibility. With two distinct but inseparable faces, the Reverso Tribute possesses the ideal design to house this complication.

Taking the mastery of sapphire crystal—the hardest and most durable material after diamond—to the next level, Hublot Big Bang Sapphire Tourbillon is completely transparent, including the case, dial and strap; its crystalline connections disappear to reveal the skeleton mechanics of the tourbillon, for which the cage is held in place by a strip cut from sapphire. The 45-mm watch has a case, bezel, and dial made of sapphire crystal, and is water resistant up to 30 metres.
