Luxury watchmaker Officine Panerai has opened “Time and Space: a Tribute to Galileo Galilei,” in Shanghai Sculpture Space, an exhibition that had first premiered in Florence last September 2010. The exhibition is divided into three stages: the brand's history, the company's international success after its acquisition by Richmont Group in 1997, and the tribute to Galileo Galilei.
To mark the 400
th anniversary of Galileo’s first celestial observations, Officine Panerai has unveiled the “astronomical” triptych: L’Astronomo (Luminor 1950 Equation of Time Tourbillon Titanium – 50 mm), the
Scienziato (Radiomir Tourbillon GMT Ceramic – 48 mm) and the
Panerai Jupiterium planetary clock.
