(Image: Panerai)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond the color of their straps and their respective luminescence, there is nothing to choose between the two with regards to aesthetics. Both weigh in at a sturdy 47mm, both retain that familiar cushion-shaped case and iconic crown guard, and both are each safe down to 300m. The pair are also crafted from the same material, namely 80 grams of EcoTitanium. It is a recycled metal alloy that Panerai has been pioneering for several years now, working hard to bring it to the industry. On the \u2018Mike Horn\u2019, this eco-friendly metal makes up the case, bezel, back, crown, and guard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The strap is also environmentally-friendly, again made from PET salvaged from plastic drinks bottles. And the watches are manufactured and assembled in Panerai\u2019s base in Neuch\u00e2tel, Switzerland that is designed for zero carbon emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35856\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35856\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-35856 size-full\" title=\"Panerai Submersible \u2018Mike Horn\u2019 Edition\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Panerai-Submersible-Mike-Horn-Pam985-3.jpg\" alt=\"eco-friendly\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Panerai-Submersible-Mike-Horn-Pam985-3.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Panerai-Submersible-Mike-Horn-Pam985-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Panerai-Submersible-Mike-Horn-Pam985-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Panerai-Submersible-Mike-Horn-Pam985-3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Panerai-Submersible-Mike-Horn-Pam985-3-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35856\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The case of the watch is made from recycled titanium.

The experience will see 19 Paneristi joining Horn for a week\u2019s survival training on the polar ice floes of the Arctic Ocean. As well as testing their own resilience and explorer&#8217;s spirit in the frozen tundra, they will also have the opportunity to learn more about the ecology of the region from a world-renowned expert. It is the last word in money-can\u2019t-buy adventures. Well, beyond the $41,000 it costs to buy the watch, I guess.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a testimonee for Panerai for more than 15 years, Mike Horn encompasses just about everything fans love most about the brand. Fervently unconventional, more than a little eccentric, and absolutely tough-as-nails. This latest expedition out into the wilds is set to be something those fortunate to own one of these eco-friendly dive watches few will never forget.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35857\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35857\" style=\"width: 2250px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-35857 size-full\" title=\"Panerai Submersible \u2018Mike Horn\u2019 Edition\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1803830.jpg\" alt=\"eco-friendly\" width=\"2250\" height=\"1500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1803830.jpg 2250w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1803830-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1803830-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1803830-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/1803830-570x380.jpg 570w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2250px) 100vw, 2250px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35857\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Owners of the PAM985 will have the opportunity to join Mike Horn on an environmental expedition.
