To give watch owners beautiful memories, Mike Horn will immerse Panerai owners in an adventure-filled experience in Bhutan. Travelers will enter a new world through spiritual hikes, archery contests, and folklore evenings.

Well, Mike trekked over 25,000 miles in 18 months from 1999 to 2000, so he’s quite experienced with such hikes. In 2001, after finishing his equator expedition, he partnered up with Panerai.

According to Panerai’s CEO, Jean-Marc Pontroué, “The timepiece embodies our shared spirit of adventure and commitment to offering extraordinary experiences around the globe, creating lasting memories.”

Since Panerai launched an experience program in 2019, it has offered watch enthusiasts new experiences, redefining how things are done.

For 20 years, Panerai and Mike Horn have grown their partnership and surpassed various limits. This new watch represents their journey—think of it as an embodiment of resiliency.

The Panerai Submersible GMT Titanio comes with a 47 mm casing, which is manufactured from titanium. And thanks to the Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) technology, the casing is quite sturdy and durable.

It’s also worthwhile to note that the casing is complemented by a carbotech bezel, with a graduated scale for precision. Since this is a limited edition watch, Panerai has rolled out 30 pieces only, and each retails at $88,400.

Check out these new watches from Casio

casio 50th anniversary watches

Since 2024 is the 50th anniversary of Casio, the iconic brand is planning to launch a new line of watches to commemorate the anniversary. However, such models were introduced in different regions. Casio Japan was recently hacked, so it had to push the launch forward. As a result, new watch models were only revealed by Casio Hong Kong.

According to an image that was published on the Casio Hong Kong Instagram, the team behind the brand plans to introduce these models into the market: Edifice EFS-S640ZE-1A, Baby-G BGD-S565ZE-1, Pro Trek PRW-6900ZE-1, and G-Shock GMC-B2100ZE-1A. While such models haven’t made it to Casio America’s official page, they will be rolled into the American market in late October.

Is there anything better than a new watch? How about a new watch that donates to a good cause? Since October is breast cancer awareness month, Casio has launched two different pink models—the GMD-S5610PK-4 and DW-5600PK-1—into the market to help raise awareness of this disease.

Some 5% of profits that are made from the sales of the DW-5600PK-1 and GMD-S5610PK-4 will be donated to the J.POSH non-profit organization. Besides that, Casio America, the main organization behind these watches, will wire $20,000 to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, even if the two models don’t make enough sales.

Volition America, Luminox partner for a limited edition watch with a great cause

Help the families of our fallen with Luminox and Volition America

Some people just have it built within their DNA to do more. There are those that go to the finish line, then there are those who don't see a finish line. Those people that look at the horizon as a checkpoint, not a destination. Those people tend to change the world. Volition America is a brand focused on doing more. They have reached a dozen checkpoints since they began in 2007, but as the world seems to get more and more volatile, they continue to keep their eye on the future and the mission they set out to accomplish. They have worked with the Folds of Honor Foundation and donated 13% of all profits to help the families of our country's bravest people: Those that have fallen in service to us. Now, despite all they have done, they have their eyes on a new horizon, with another partner with a history of helping our service members, Luminox.
You buy a future

Luminox has been the watch of the Navy SEALS for three decades, adorning the wrists of the tip of the spear. Now, they are making a limited edition Patriot 13 in partnership with Volition America. With the Volition America logo at the six spot and the number 13 at the one as the sole digit (representing the 13 folds of a flag presented at a fallen soldier's funeral), it is truly a unique piece of military and service honor. The cost for this watch is $5K. But that isn't any $5K; that is a donation to the Folds of Honor Foundation. 100% goes to the service members' families. This scholarship is to add to the $220 million Volition has already donated.
