2: Exterior Details – Bronze Case, Green Dial, Sapphire Crystal

🔶 47mm Solid Bronze Case

The VS Factory uses high-grade bronze to replicate the original PAM382’s warm metallic tone and natural aging characteristics. Over time, the bronze surface develops a unique patina, giving every watch a personalized antique look.

🔶 Green Sunburst Dial

The signature deep-green dial features a beautiful sunray pattern with luminous hour markers and hands. The color contrasts strongly with the bronze case and delivers a true vintage diver aesthetic.

🔶 Super-LumiNova Luminous Coating

The hands and indexes are coated with high-grade Super-LumiNova, ensuring strong and long-lasting brightness in low-light conditions.

🔶 Sapphire Crystal

Made from scratch-resistant sapphire, the crystal guarantees clarity and durability even with daily wear.

 5: Bronze Patina – A Watch That Evolves Over Time

What makes the Bronzo truly special is how the bronze case naturally oxidizes. As you wear the watch, it will gradually develop its own unique patina due to:

• Skin contact

• Humidity

• Air exposure

This gives each piece a distinct identity, making it a favorite among vintage-style watch lovers and Panerai collectors.
