Watches & Wonders 2021 - Panerai Submersible eLab ID Watch Replica made by recycled materials
Panerai has made a significant breakthrough in Panerai Submersible eLAB-ID 44 mm replica PAM01225, which is made of 98.6% by weight recyclable materials. Panerai announced the watch and provided a list of suppliers who helped the watch provide a model for how circular watchmaking practices can be applied to the watch industry. The brand describes it as "the watch with the highest percentage of recycled materials ever."
Case & Dial
According to Panerai, which developed the replica Panerai Submersible eLAB-ID at its Laboratorio di Idee research-and-development workshop, fully 98.6 percent of the watch's total weight "comes from materials integrating a high rate of recycled elements." Breaking that number down to specific elements, the eLAB-ID's case, sandwich-style dial, and movement bridges are composed of EcoTitanium, an aerospace-grade recycled titanium alloy first used by Panerai on 2019's Mike Horn Edition of the Submersible.
Its dial is the first to use recycled Super-LumiNova on its hands (made of recycled gold) and hour markers. Even the sapphire crystal over the gray-tone dial comes from a recycling process. The Grigio Roccia fabric strap with light blue stitching is derived from recycled PET and attaches with an EcoTitanium buckle. To source all of these materials, Panerai needed to build an entirely new supply chain, working with partners many of whom had never previously worked with such high levels of recycled content.
Panerai has, of course, not missed a step in presenting the eLAB-ID as an actual luxury timepiece with a high level of finishing, despite its overwhelming use of recycled raw material, including for the movement. The 44-mm EcoTitanium case has a brushed finish, and its unidirectional rotating bezel has polished knurling and a micro-sandblasted, engraved surface with a relief diving scale. Like all Submersible replica models, it is equipped with the telltale, patented bridge-shaped, safety-locking crown protector device that Panerai introduced (and patented) way back in the 1950s.
Movement
Like the case, the movement inside the eLAB-ID, called Caliber P.900e and made up of 161 total components, has been essentially rebuilt with repurposed materials to the furthest extent possible; even 17 of the jewels are recycled. In every critical aspect, the self-winding movement offers the same attributes as the standard "built from scratch" version — a 28,800-vph frequency, Incabloc shock protection, and three days of power reserve in a single barrel. The movement beats behind a screwed caseback of EcoTitanium, helping ensure the watch's water-resistance of 300 meters.
