Below is a copy of the official Panerai press release:
New York, NY – January 2014 – Italian watchmaker Officine Panerai has expanded its North American
Panerai’s newest boutiques have been designed to create an intimate, comfortable atmosphere and follow a simple and classic design, made to enhance the store’s bright, transparent features with nautical accents. In honor of the historic association between Officine Panerai and the Italian Navy (which dates back to the 1930s), the shapes and materials used throughout the boutique recall the world of the sea: simple lines alternate with wave-like structures. All materials, many of which have been imported from Italy, have been carefully selected while taking inspiration from the Brand’s Florentine roots. A large wall-clock features one of the more distinctive features of a Panerai timepiece: the “sandwich” structure of the ® legendary dial: two superimposed surfaces enclose a layer of Super-LumiNova , used to make the index markers and numerals more visible even in badly lit conditions.
“Aspen has become an important market for fine watches and luxury goods given the high level of style and sophistication that is present in the area. The casual, sporty elegance of Aspen’s men and women of all ages is very similar to the values of Panerai, hence we feel that this market is a perfect fit.”
The Aspen boutique showcases Panerai’s core collection of iconic Radiomir, Luminor, Luminor 1950 and Radiomir 1940 case designs (styles which are trademarked by Panerai), as well as a selection of limited edition watches with movements entirely made at Officine Panerai’s Neuchâtel Manufacture. Panerai Aspen joins existing U.S. boutiques in Bal Harbour, Beverly Hills, Boca Raton, Dallas, La Jolla, Las Vegas, Naples, New York City, and Palm Beach.
