While there are plenty high end watch makers that team with super car makers (and usually they create really amazing pieces,) The Ferrari Chronograph from Panerai stands out amongst the crowd in several categories.

Officine Panerai did a wonderful job in creating one of the most interesting and inspiring designs, and was able to transform the luxurious and the kind of royal aw you might feel when you see a yellow Ferrari cruising on the road.

The connection between both designers is so strong, that the Officine Panerai trademarks appear only at the back of the watch and not on its face like we are used to see in the Panerai designs.

Case, Bezel, Crown & Crystal

The case is made from highly polished stainless steal, and the curves of the body of the watch were made according to the Ferrari's figure.

The watch has a tachymeter scale on the flange for all the complex calculation you might be able to do while driving your Ferrari at 250Kph on the Autoban.

The crystal is made from Sapphire to ensure maximum scratch protection and minimal reflection.

The Crown and buttons has a square grid texture and the logo of Ferrari is marked on the crown as well.

The Creon screws in and out smoothly and without difficulties.

Dial, Hands & Lume

The face is yellow with the Ferrari shield applied at 12 o'clock.

The sub dials are positioned as followed: a continuous seconds dial at 9 o'clock and a minute counter dial at 3 o'clock.

The hour and minute hands has great luminosity as well as several other markers on the face of the watch.

Back and Strap

The back of the chronograph Ferrari Panerai replica watch is made of steel, with the engraving of Prancing Horse and geometric pattern decorations.

Around the edges of the back is engraved the inscription - Engineered by OFFICINE PANERAI - the only place where the watch maker's name is mentioned.

The strap is made out of Black leather with horizontal stitching, the inner side of the strap is made out of yellow alligator leather with yellow sewing.

Conclusion

If I had to put it in only 4 words I would say "Go buy it. now!"

Thanks to the wonders of the internet I use so many other words to express how much I adore this precious timepiece.

With the combination of both designer houses you get a watch that is not only accurate and reliable, you also get an attractive watch that will draw lots of attention and might leave a few mouths open.

If you already own a Ferrari car then most chance you can easily afford one of these babies, but for the rest of us, it's the replica path again.

I recommend getting the Swiss grade replica of this watch as only that level of fake watches can get you the accuracy and quality you would expect from the Ferrari / Panerai flagship model.
