PANERAI TESTS AND CERTIFICATION STANDARDS
The following pages include details of the standards and tests which have
been applied to your watch in the course of its construction at the Panerai
Manufacture. These standards apply not only to the movement but to the
watch as a whole with all its components.
Consistent with what it has always done in the past, Panerai works on the
continuous improvement of every part of your watch and it certifies that every
single component meets the strictest standards of high-quality watchmaking.
N.B. The tests and standards relate to the operation of the watch in the
workshop at the time of manufacture. However, in situations of use or lack of
use it is possible that, within the limits of recognised tolerances, some lack of
conformity may arise which cannot under any circumstances be described as
manufacturing defects or defective operation. A watch being an assembly of
mechanical moving parts, such parts are susceptible to wear. It is therefore
recommended that the watch should be checked periodically at an Authorized
Service Center and that a complete overhaul should be carried out every four
years.

These consist of checks carried out over 21 consecutive days, during which
the movement is subjected to various dynamic stress cycles, to assess the
resistance of all the components, the maintenance of a regular rate and of the
correct functioning for the period indicated.
The test cycle is equivalent to the use of the watch for about 6 months on the
wearer’s wrist. Thermic and climatic tests are also carried out over 14 days in
total (included in the abovementioned 21 days), exposing the watch between
