Welcome some thoughts. I have a gen PAM90 so don’t want anything like that.

Thinking about Bronzo ZF
Or another submersible ZF.
Or a Radiomir

I have a 20 cm wrist and talk so I can manage a larger watch. Thoughts? Anything else I should consider?

I've been also thinking about a new Pam and the 47mm Bronzo has caught my attention . I have an even bigger 22cm wrist and my 44mm Pam1323 is nice on me , but so is my 48mm Super Avenger :) . I have never owned a bronze watch and the whole developing patina on it over time is kinda intriguing.

I would recommend 569 if you are looking for a destro 47mm sub in Titanium, or 292 if you are looking for ceramic radiomirs

Both are discontinued unfortunately but they do come up often at m2m

Bronzo is super cool, but the movement is a ticking time bomb and impossible to replace. I'd say buy a submersible, and there are many to choose from.

What about the new VSF 1024? there are reports that some TD has now difficoulties to source it but it is a neat replica that is def still available if you are looking around. Also we are waiting the first real life pictures of the announced 1391. This year is the America's cup year and a Luna Rossa model could fit the hype.

Also, if you want to stay clear from the 090, you should consider a manual movement Panerai. It makes a nice change from the auto and has several pluses as relaiability and easy to set the watch when you pick it from the box.

Bronzo is super cool, but the movement is a ticking time bomb and impossible to replace. I'd say buy a submersible, and there are many to choose from.
Didn't know the bronzo movement is known for being unreliable: isn't the same P.9000 clone that is in every VSF sub?

I ran across a PAM Luminor Due 1388 that I thought was awesome. Albeit the one I saw had a brown strap, here's an example. I think I can pull off a 42mm. If not, add it to the now growing collection.
