PAM01738 — Panerai Submersible Navy SEALs: 44mm Steel Case with Matte Black Ceramic Bezel

Originally reported by Monochrome Watches. This article is a curated summary of their original coverage.

44mm stainless steel case and a matte black ceramic unidirectional bezel define the Submersible Navy SEALs PAM01738.

What this watch is

Panerai keeps its official tie to the U.S. Navy SEALs and adds another Submersible to that lineage. The new PAM01738 borrows the brand’s cushion-shaped case but settles the treatment into stainless steel rather than experimental, ultra-limited materials.

Case, bezel and design cues

The case measures 44mm and uses Panerai’s familiar cushion silhouette. The bezel is a matte black ceramic, unidirectional by design, and the overall approach reads as a reined-in, utilitarian take compared with the Afniotech Experience release that preceded it. In short: the Afniotech model’s aesthetic has been extracted and applied in a more grounded steel package.

• Case diameter: 44mm
• Case material: stainless steel
• Bezel: matte black ceramic, unidirectional
• Case shape: cushion
• Official partnership: U.S. Navy SEALs

Panerai continues its official partnership with the U.S. Navy SEALs with a new Submersible.

If you liked the design language of the Afniotech Experience but found that model too niche or limited, PAM01738 is the practical expression to watch. It signals Panerai’s willingness to translate those cues into a conventional steel Submersible; the sensible next step is to compare availability and full specs once Panerai releases them.
