Panerai Luminor Submersible Tritium Dial 2001

Panerai Luminor Submersible PAM00024 “Tritium D-Series”

Panerai, founded in Florence in 1860, has deep historical roots in crafting precision instruments for the Italian Navy. The brand is known for its bold, highly legible designs and robust cases, originally built for underwater use.

The Luminor Submersible PAM00024 is a key reference in Panerai’s dive watch lineage, introduced in the late 1990s and continuing into the early 2000s. As one of the earliest Submersibles, the PAM00024 blends Panerai’s iconic cushion-shaped Luminor case with a rotating dive bezel and enhanced water resistance. Notably, early models like this D-series feature tritium dials, which have become highly collectible for the rich patina they develop over time.

With its military-inspired design, signature crown guard, and commanding wrist presence, the PAM00024 represents Panerai’s transition from a niche military supplier to a modern luxury watchmaker with a loyal global following.

Key Details To Consider

This Panerai Luminor Submersible PAM00024 is an early D series example from 2001, presented in very nice overall condition with all original components. The standout feature is the original black tritium dial, which has developed a rich yellow patina over time. The matching tritium hands and pearl pip on the bezel further highlight the uniform aging, adding depth and vintage appeal to the watch.

The case and bezel remain in strong condition, showing signs of careful wear over the years. The movement has been tested and runs accurately, offering reliable performance for daily use or collection.

Fitted with a new 24/24mm brown Panerai strap, this Submersible retains its bold wrist presence and iconic design cues. A strong example of Panerai’s early 2000s production, complete with vintage character and original tritium elements.
