Looking for a rather "small" PAM - any suggestions?

Hi PAM-Fans,

I really like the look of Panerai-Watches, but I'm not that much into big watches.
Are there any Panerai-models, that are rather small?

For reference: I love the size of my Moonwatch reduced (which is about 40mm/11mm thick), a Tag Heuer Carrera is slighty to big for my taste (44mm/16mm).

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I thought the same thing when I first got into PAMS....they were too big.
They actually arent that big, they just look big but you get used to it.

Now I cant wear the 47mm ones as they dwarf my wrist.

I don't know what it is but the 44mm PAMs wear small and look very "balanced" (I think its the short lugs and 24mm strap).

I am a 40mm (42mm pushes my limit) kinda guy and the 44mm PAM seem to wear better and more comfortable to me.
If your wrist is flat enough to hold 50mm lug to lug (height wise) without lug over hang I would definitely go 44mm. My wrist is a tad under 7" but it's a flat wrist.

I'm hooked on PAMs now... damn you coldi!

A black pvd or dlc will look smaller on the wrist, as will sticking with a 24/22 strap.

OP what is your wrist size?

I grabbed a 40mm Pam as my first Pam as I feared the 44mm would be to large.. I was wrong. 44mm fits my 7.5" wrist like a glove, 47mm fit me well... If your wrist is over 6.5", I'm guessing you'll end up with a 44mm at least.
