In the generation of Giuseppe Panerai , the 4th generation owner , he entrusted his brothers with the management of a watch shop and repair shop. While growing into a luxury watch and repair shop, Mr. Giuseppe himself devoted himself to naval military development.
During the Second World War, the Italian Navy formed a special unit (commonly known as the Black Seal) whose main mission was nighttime surprise attacks using low-speed torpedoes. In their harsh deep-sea missions, it is essential to use watches and compasses with high visibility and water pressure resistance so that they can accurately recognize the time even in the dark and carry out their missions reliably.
