Anyone own the 42mm Blue Bronzo?

As the title asks, anyone wearing the Pam 1074? I am curious how the 42 mm diver feels and looks in person. I only have two Panerai and they are both 44mm. Just wondering if 42 from such a hefty brand would seem too small.

I don’t own the bronzo. I just ordered a 42mm special edition submersible after trying on the prototype at the boutique. I was honestly on the fence about it. I have a 7.25 wrist and my 47mm Panerai has kept me from owning smaller sized Panerai’s. Going from a 44 to a 42 you might not notice the difference.

I just picked one up Saturday actually. I also have a 47MM bronzo with ceramic bezel, and the new Radiomir bronzo (amongst too many other Panerais than I care to admit). I have a pretty sizable wrist, and typically do not at all like the 42MM Panerai range. But to me Blue Abisso (1074) is outstanding. It is my favorite of all the Bronzos that I have TBH. It's thick enough and large enough to still feel like a Bronzo, without being quite as over the top.

Thanks for the feedback. I may try and find one. I tried on the 47mm before, it was just too large for me.

How about post some pics of all that bronze! I own a couple bronze watches, no Panerai....yet!
