The Panerai Luminor Sealand ‘Year of the Ox’ is the first of a series of Panerai models dedicated to the Chinese zodiac. It is similar to the Purdey pieces, though Panerai opted for Italian craftsmen instead of Purdey for the artwork. The engraving is now filled with gold wire, which is hammered until the desired effect is reached.The ‘Year of the Ox’ was released in 2009 to celebrate the Chinese year of the ox.
