No other luxury watch company can touch Panerai when it comes to making tough-as-nails timepieces. A natural blend of Italian design, Swiss precision and deep ties to the sea, you can be sure when you get a Panerai, it can take anything you throw at it — no matter how deep you dive. The 42mm Submersible looks refined on land is rugged and ready in the water like no other diver out there. With its standard rubber bracelet, water-resistance to 300 meters and its iconic Panerai crown guard, it is easy to see why these watches have been the first choice of Italian Navy Frogmen for decades. The 42mm Submersible is the perfect choice when you need a watch you can wear anywhere — for any occasion.
