Pam 193

Was at friends shop the other day and on thing that was in his case was the Panerai 193, I had seen them in pictures but never in the flesh. As my wrists are just under 7 inches I knew it was a beast but I still had to try it on and I must say WOW! What a COOL AND AMAZING WATCH! I wish my wrists were an inch bigger so I could pull it off. That is really an amazing watch!!!

Hahaha no 44 mm is really that max my wrist can handle :(

Sad to say but its a fact of life I have had to accept.

I wore a bigger watch for a while and I really felt like I should have been in a Hip Hop video...

I have 7" wrists and like the 44mm size best. IMHO.

193, is 47mm Ti Sub with depth gauge right? meh. Yes, 47mm is too big for my wrists as well, that rules out my grail, 127 out! That's life. Personally I think that 193 is too busy for with depth markers. As a function to measure how deep you dive is cool but it's just that. If I was diving I'd use dive computer instead.

Sub models don't really sing for me really.

Want your wrist the be bigger? Have a big mac with fries plus milkshake five times a day for three months then you'll be set!
