Is there a Pam for skinny wrists?

I really want to add a Pam to my collection, but I fear they may be too big for my skinny wrists. Can anyone recommend a model?

You can look for a 40mm model, but personally i would recommend the 44mm, my wrists are small as well but i definitely prefer the 44mm, good luck on deciding, once you go pam, you never go back :)

Thanks for the info, I didn't realise there were 40mm versions too :)

Do you know if the 40mm reps are as good as the 45mm versions? I ask because the Omega 42mm reps were never as good as the 45mm ones.

What is your wrist size? Initially, I thought the 44mm would be to big for my 7" wrist. So, I picked up a low cost 111 and tried it out. It looked fine!

I have a 7.25" wrist. 44mm Pam looks great, 45.5mm PO looks great too......next up is the 46mm Breitling Heritage.

Don't let size frighten you. Big is beautiful.

6.25" here, I'm not 7" until half way up my forearm!

This is me with the smaller 42mm Omega PO, the 45mm full size hangs off me! :-(

44mm PAMs will wear just fine with you, I have the same wrist size and I can wear a PAM 005 and a 243 without them looking like wall clocks.

Here are some of the wrist shots i have with the PAMs.

There are loads of 40mm PAMs, but I wouldnt recommend them - somehow they dont feel like panerais. I have fairly small wrists, but the panerai looks just right on me. Buy a 44m from a member, if you dont like it, offload it for the same price you paid.

I wouldn't go for a 40mm. It defeats the entire purpose of having a Panerai. How big/small is your wrist? 44mm should fit you fine.

I have not come across a 40mm PAM worthy of wearing. They just aren't good enough.
