Can you recommend a Radiomir

I own a white Panerai submersible. I am interested in a complimentary Radiomir. I have a diminutive 6.5 inch wrist. Any recommendations?

I was crazy Panerai 20 years ago was in Florence not long ago so had to buy one from the boutique so I bought a 1348 8 day manual movement, see through case back, under the radar, amazing accuracy for a 8 day movement.

Absolutely love it, sure I like my Rolexes but wont play the stupid games and I am not a insta-flog.

I always wanted a Radiomir but with my small wrist, after some research I went with the PAM337. Perfect look (sandwich dial) and size (42mm) and thinness (11.7mm) with a Piaget manual movement and screw down crown. There is a titanium version as well, PAM338.

Yup, its beautiful. Since you already have a submersible and your now looking for a Radiomir, might as well get the original look and go with wire lugs.

I have a small wrist about your size and have a PAM338 Radiomir. Titanium, manual wind, 42mm, wire lugs. Fits great and is light on the wrist.

There are quite a few. Maybe start with the 337 (steel) or 338 (Ti) at 42 mm or 210 (steel) or 292 (ceramic) at 45 mm.

Got a brown strap and some coasters thrown in.

After attempting negotiations.

I always like 292 ceramic, but never own one. I did owned a 210 before but it got moved on because of other watch purchases.

congrats on the new Radiomir! Been enjoying wearing my 1350 quite a bit over my Luminors recently! Is a Luminor the next one on the list to round out your PAMily?!

UGH. I desperately want the 1348. It's a stunning reference. My local boutique has one available. Just can't wrap my head around paying retail.

There's a pre-owned 1335 at a local AD for $5,500 US. I may grab that to hold me over until I can find the 1348 pre-owned.

Wear in good health, it's one of my grail Panerais.

Congratulations

If I were to get another Radiomir I’d go wire lugs

In the past I have owned the 210, 183, 292, 424. A 380 is sharp and great value.
