From the 1930s to the 1950s, Panerai sourced movements and cases from Rolex for their diving watches, which were initially created for the Italian Navy. Today, Panerai is an independent luxury watch brand owned by the Richemont Group and no longer relies on Rolex for its components, producing its own in-house movements.
