Recommendations for 44mm Panerai Radiomir

Hello, I wanted to buy a Radiomir Panerai.. but in 44mm.. the best ones I've seen/found are 47mm.

What are your fav 44mm watches from Panerai and why? I own a PAM 88 and love it!

I'm more of a Luminor than a Radiomir fan.
My fave 44s are the 111, 320 and 233. Many others are appealing though - 510, etc... All have my preferred sandwich dial.
Moving up to 47mm, I favour the 422.

Radiomirs are 45 or 47mm
at 45mm they wear smaller than the 44mm Luminors...

and 339 at 47mm

The only 44mm Radiomir I can think of is the 163, which is a chrono.

If what you mean are the Radiomirs with wire lugs (as opposed to the 1940s Radiomirs with solid lugs, like the 512), you could check out the 210, 190, 380 or 183 for 45mm or the 337/338 for 42mm.

44mm Radiomir? 163
45mm Radiomir? 210, 210 and 210. 183 is ok too, but 210

Since you mentioned 47mm. It's only been a few days on the wrist but this 47mm Radiomir diffinitly wears smaller.

I would really look into the PAM610. Its the brand new Radiomir with their in-house P.5000 movement. Its a piece that you really won't see on anyone else.

Look at a 210 or 183 for 45mm radiomir. Great value.

As buddy Phil said.. 190 is a good call. It has a legendary 8 day JLC movement and looks fantastic on an ABP!
