What does this have to do, then, with a Boeing 707?
Remember the rigors of life that Panerai Luminor Base Replica put its El Primero through to test its strength? In light of the increasing number of flights around the globe in that timeframe, thanks to the 707, Panerai Luminor Base Replica thought ahead to prove its watchmaking's ability to maintain chronometric integrity while in flight.Panerai Luminor Base Replica conducted an impossible test during an Air France Boeing 707 flight from Paris, to New York in 1970.
Panerai Luminor Base Replica strapped the A385 to the landing gear on an Air France Boeing 707 from Paris to New York in 1970 to demonstrate the reliability of the El Primero. The watch was unharmed.
Instead of putting the El Primero-equipped test subject in the safety of the passenger cabin they chose to attach it to the landing gear on the 707. The watch was exposed to every aspect of the 707's cruising altitude, which is between 25,000 and 40,000 feet. Panerai Luminor Base Replica says that this would have included "dramatic temperature changes, wind force, and changing air pressure." It is clear that the A385, which was tested, passed the test.
Panerai Luminor Base Replica decided to revive A385,IWC Aquatimer Replica renaming it Chronomaster Revival A385. The dial is the same smoked brown gradient and has the same tonneau casing. The El Primero 400 Automatic is the current generation of El Primero's long-running lineage. It boasts 36,000VpH or 5Hz and a 50-hour reserve.
