A the Panerai Manufacture, watches are tested through pressure, shock, corrosion, and endurance. In the field, explorers and athletes test them again, where terrain, weather, and instinct decide the rest. Each one meets a different element, a different brink. Through them, the watch transcends its function, becoming an indelible part of the journey.

Get ready to discover the achievements of Panerai Advocates, told firsthand by those who lived them.

Mike Horn Mike Horn

Mike Horn

Celebrated explorer and Panerai ambassador for 25 years, Mike embodies the Maison’s values with his extraordinary adventures and resilience. His feats, from polar expeditions to high-altitude climbs without oxygen, reflect Panerai's spirit of daring and innovation, and in designing reliable instruments to accompany Horn's quest to go beyond limits.

English

“I often find myself in impossible terrain, and my gear must become part of what keeps me moving – time, direction, and something to rely on when every choice matters. I will always remember the incident on the K2 mountain. Bad weather forced me to turn back before the summit. During the descent, I ran out of pitons and couldn’t secure my rope. So I took off my Panerai and pushed it into a crack. Then I put a rope around the watch, and it became my point of anchorage. You don’t want that watch to move because the moment it does, you fall and it’s over. On this occasion, Panerai was my savior.”

Italiano

"Mi trovo spesso ad affrontare terreni impossibili e il mio equipaggiamento deve diventare parte di ciò che mi permette di andare avanti: il tempo, la direzione, e qualcosa su cui poter contare quando ogni decisione è fondamentale. Ricorderò sempre ciò che accadde sul K2. Il maltempo mi costrinse a rinunciare alla vetta. Durante la discesa rimasi senza chiodi e non potei più assicurare la corda. Così tolsi il mio Panerai e lo incastrai in una fessura della roccia. Vi legai la corda e l'orologio divenne il mio punto di ancoraggio. Non puoi permetterti che si muova, perché nel momento in cui cede, cadi. In quell'occasione, Panerai mi ha salvato la vita."

Côme Girardot

Specialized in 'døds' – a freefall discipline popularized in Norway – Côme embodies Panerai’s pursuit of performance and its commitment to pushing limits. Unlike a gradual descent, a high-speed leap sends force through the case in an instant. After more than 100 training jumps, Côme Girardot and the Luminor Marina PAM03312 faced the final iceberg mission – a 20m jump – with its steel case remaining robust, fully waterproof and precise through the sudden pressure.

English

“Before Greenland, I had to prepare for much more than a jump. After my injury, every session was about rebuilding trust in my body through training, repetition, cold, height and impact. I was determined to complete a world first: jumping from a real iceberg into the freezing waters of Disko Bay. In an environment where every decision matters, I rely on equipment built to perform without compromise. My Panerai Luminor Marina is part of that mindset – developed to withstand sudden force, freezing temperatures and open water, so I can focus entirely on the challenge ahead.”

Italiano

"Prima della Groenlandia ho dovuto prepararmi a molto più di un semplice salto. Dopo l'infortunio, ogni allenamento serviva a ricostruire la fiducia nel mio corpo attraverso la ripetizione, il freddo, l'altezza e l'impatto. Ero determinato a realizzare un'impresa mai compiuta prima: tuffarmi da un vero iceberg nelle acque gelide della Baia di Disko. In un ambiente in cui ogni decisione conta, mi affido ad attrezzature progettate per offrire prestazioni senza compromessi. Il mio Panerai Luminor Marina fa parte di questa sicurezza: sviluppato per resistere agli impatti improvvisi, alle temperature estreme e all'acqua aperta, mi permette di concentrarmi esclusivamente sulla sfida che ho davanti."

Kauli Vaast

Olympic Gold Medalist at the 2024 Paris Olympics, three-time European WSL Junior Champion and Vice World Champion in team surfing ISA 2023, at 22 years old Kauli is a force of nature for his young talent and daring courage. Embodying Polynesian rawness and French sophistication, Kauli’s diverse heritage permeates through his commitment to surfing greatness, uncompromising performance and profound bond with the water realm, blending with the spirit of Panerai.

English

“Adrenaline is part of surfing Teahupo'o. Mastering it demands intense training: breathwork, physical conditioning, and the ability to remain calm when held beneath the surface. Yet, in competition, it's the instinct that truly takes over. When the gold medal was on the line, in a split second I had to react, reflecting years of learned actions. Here salt water, impact, and countless hours in the lineup, demand equipment that performs with consistency. My Panerai Submersible is made for those conditions. When the wave finally arrives, there is no time to hesitate – only to commit, relying on my readiness, my gut feeling, and the equipment that brought me there.”

Italiano

"L'adrenalina fa parte del surf a Teahupo'o. Per dominarla servono allenamento, controllo del respiro, preparazione fisica e la capacità di mantenere la calma quando ci si ritrova trattenuti sott'acqua. In gara, però, è l'istinto a prendere il sopravvento. Quando la medaglia d'oro era in gioco, ho dovuto reagire in una frazione di secondo, affidandomi a gesti costruiti in anni di allenamento. L'acqua salata, gli impatti e le infinite ore trascorse tra le onde richiedono strumenti che offrano prestazioni costanti. Il mio Panerai Submersible è nato per queste condizioni. Quando arriva l'onda giusta non c'è tempo per esitare: bisogna scegliere, affidandosi alla preparazione, all’intuito e all'attrezzatura che ti ha portato fin lì."

“I've been fortunate to live some incredible adventures around the world, but Panerai's Naval Aviation Experience was unlike anything I'd ever done. For three days, we stepped into the world of Italian naval aviators, pushing ourselves through military drills, helicopter operations and tactical simulations that took us well beyond our comfort zones. What stayed with me most wasn't just the adrenaline; it was sharing every challenge with a group of people who all shared the same curiosity, passion and spirit of exploration. You don't leave an experience like this with just memories. You leave with friendships, confidence, and stories you'll be telling for years."

Italiano

"Ho avuto la fortuna di vivere avventure straordinarie in tutto il mondo, ma la Naval Aviation Experience di Panerai è stata qualcosa di completamente diverso. Per tre giorni siamo entrati nel mondo degli aviatori della Marina Militare, affrontando addestramenti, operazioni in elicottero e simulazioni tattiche che ci hanno portati ben oltre la nostra zona di comfort. Ciò che mi è rimasto più impresso non è stata soltanto l'adrenalina, ma il condividere ogni sfida con persone animate dalla stessa curiosità, dalla stessa passione e dallo stesso spirito di esplorazione. Da un'esperienza come questa non porti via soltanto dei ricordi. Porti con te amicizie, fiducia in te stesso e storie che continuerai a raccontare per molti anni."
