My first PAM was the V6F 441 as I fell in love with that black ceramic look. The watch came as described and having Trusty Time as a TD really make the experience fantastic. Having an 8.25" wirst the 44mm fit perfect but it did sit a little high with tis bulky case. After having that for a year or so, I found the PAM 904 Due made by VSF. At 42mm this was indeed the true sweet spot for me; although this also site a bit higher on the wrist. The Due is supposed to be a thinner than the 44mm cases so they should have in theory have a lower height profile but it seems the factory did not take this into account. My guess is they just used the existing 42mm bezel from other models but I could be wrong. Any PAM is a strap magnet, so you have a plethora of choices. I loved wearing my 904 on a NATO so definitely take a look at that setup. No doubt Panerai reps look fantastic. Wears your in good health!
