Panerai Case Size and Wear Question

[chrispatel]

Hopefully you folks can help me.

I am looking for a Panerai. I have owned a PAM 88 and Sub and they fit me well. I am looking at the new 1950 case watches and wanted to know how they fit and compared with the ones I have worn before.

Any and all advice would be much appreciated.

I had the 243 and some say it is top heavy but I found it to be very comfortable And am considering the 305 as I find that even more comfortable

That being said I did have a 212 but it never fit right on oem strap with deployment clasp fit much better with leather strap with tang buckle

For me, with a 6.75 wrist, I find the 1950s cases to be a bit too thick. I used to smack my 312 into everything, all the time. I felt like I was wearing a toaster on my wrist. Your 88's case is much more wearable.

My 1950 42mm wears a bit larger than my 42mm Explorer II. I have a relatively small wrist and it first perfectly.

In my opinion it's the perfect size for small - medium wrist size.
