Officine Panerai opens “History and Legend” Exhibition in ION Singapore from 26 August to 6 September.
The Panerai Submersible Flyback chronograph, introduced in SIHH 2015. The Submersible was created as an inspiration by the Egiziano which was created for the Egyptian Navy.
The exhibition is located at ION Orchard, the exclusive shopping mall where the only Officine Panerai boutique in Singapore is based.
Visitors will be able to travel through time, discovering the origins of the design of Panerai watches in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s with a display that unfolds around a full-size prototype (7.5 metres long, 0.53 in diameter) of a “slow-speed torpedo”, a human torpedo also known as Siluro a Lenta Corsa (S.L.C.), similar to the one shown below.
The “Siluro a Lenta Corsa” (Italian, Low Speed Torpedo – SLC), also known as maiale (“pig”), was an Italian human torpedo — Museo Sacrario delle Bandiere delle Forze Armate, inside the monument to Vittorio Emanuele II, Rome, Italy. Photo: Myrabella / Wikimedia Commons / CC-BY-SA-3.0 & GFDL
