Panerai 44mm similar to 372?
I love the simplicity of the 372, but cannot fathom the 47mm size.
What's a luminor that's similar to 372, but at 44mm? One with only seconds-dial is fine, too. What are Radiomir watches that are similar? |

Sorry, none. It's a wish of many, though.
A 112 is also a base, but quite a different case, crystal, dial font, lume color and movement. Try a 372, though. It may be 47, but it wears well. |

Panerai 390 would be closest.

Give the 372 a try on the wrist. While 47 mm it is very wearable.

I don't own one, but I find Panarei 47 doesn't feel that large, at least to me.

The 562 has the simple dial like a 372 but has a titanium case with 8 day movement.

Try the 372 and have someone take a picture from about six feet away. Take a look, and that's how the watch will look on you in the real world. My wrists aren't enormous at 7.25" but I can just about get away with a 372. One member here wears one on a 6.6" wrist.
Like I said (and has been said above), give the 372 a try. You might be surprised. If it doesn't work, then try the 390. Good luck

If Panerai made one, I would already have it ...
The closest I would say is 233 with the case style, imagine a 233 with a base dial ... :)

390 is nice! But I prefer sandwich dial :( I agree, 233 looks nice, except I wish it had base, sandwich dial.

6.5" here
I have 6.5" wrist and 372 is my daily beater. thicker or thinner straps, OEM or aftermarket, each give different feels. try it..the case fits your wrist like 44mm 1950 case, 372 even comfier in my opinion because it sits flat.
390 for luminor and 232 for radiomir is the closest I think. both sits flat, golden hands, base dial, extra tobacco dial which is nice contrast to the golden hands, only minus dome glass and minus sandwich dial on 390. I have a 232 too, and it wears a lot smaller than the 372. |

I feel like the 305 wears smaller than 372 because it has more bezel and less crystal / dial
