2000 - Panerai creates the Luminor Submersible 1000 metres, a professional diver's instrument designed according to the NIHS (Normes de l'Industrie Horlogère Suisse) specifications relating to diver's watches and able to withstand a depth of 1000 metres. Equipped with a helium valve necessary for decompression, the sapphire crystal has a thickness of 5.1 mm and the steel back is 3 mm thick.
2001 - The Panerai Boutique is inaugurated, following restyling, at the historical site in Piazza San Giovanni in Florence, following the purchase of the family boutique by Officine Panerai. This Bottega d'Arte represents a meeting point for enthusiasts and collectors of the brand who can find here, in addition to the current collection, special editions and production runs which Panerai reserves exclusively for its boutiques. The shop also plays host to the Panerai Historical Archive, a selection of historical items created by the Florentine company: watches, compasses, depth gauges, torches and horology instruments.
2002 - The first Panerai boutique in Asia opens in the Prince's Building in Hong Kong. Officine Panerai opens the Manufacture in Neuchâtel, where all activities relating to the development and production of watches are based.
2003 - The Panerai Boutique in Portofino is opened in the charming Piazzetta in this well-known Italian seaside resort. New ideas come to life...
2004 - The Radiomir collection is enhanced by the 8 Days model. This is a return to the past, with the re-presentation in a modern key of a mechanism which Officine Panerai has already experimented with, the hand-wound 8-day movement. The calibre used in the 1940s was the Angelus, while the new model has a Jaeger-LeCoultre base. The case is 45 millimetres in diameter and is fitted with the patented slim wire loop strap attachments and a round caseband, while the screwed back and crown ensure water-resistance to 100 metres.

Arcadia Watches
The watchmaker responsible for these oeuvres is Karsten Fraessdorf; of these two modern classics, which have cost him several years of development, he says, "With these chronometers, we succeed in providing a fresh definition of the precision of mechanical wristwatches." Arcadia, a revived 19th-century name, is the brainchild of Bunter's owner, Claude Sanz.
This victim of the Quartz Crisis from Fleurier, which remainedin operation from 18$8 to 1970, is now being resuscitated thanks to Bunter's know-how in complicated watchmaking, which until now has been utilized in the service of other brands. "When you make watch components, you inevitably think about creating your own brand," says Sanz. The ACOI is the new-old brand's first introduction, a very modern chronograph that also includes a 44-hour display (that can also be used as a second time zone display), and date. This automatic watch, crafted in titanium, is limited to 47$ pieces.

Arcadia Swiss Watches
The year is 1856. The Swiss horological industry is enjoying one of its earliest booms. Watchmaker Jules-Samuel Jequier, born in 1835 in Fleurier, joins Bovet after training as a jewel-cutter and quickly climbs up the company ladder. In 1858, he founds Arcadia and positions it as the top-ofthe-line among the five watchmaking brands of the Fleurier Watch Company, a manufacturer specialized in jewelcutting and designing watch calibers which had watchmaking farmers working cooperatively.
Arcadia was a creative, avant-garde brand infused with the period’s contemporary vision and became the flagship of the Fleurier Watch Company.
