What is the thickness of ...

the 40mm Luminour Marinas vs the 44mm Luminor Marinas.

Thanks,

Jonathan.

Hey My friend... First, welcome....

Any particular model? I can certainly give you some ideas on thickness of a few of the 44mm models. I don't have a 40mm - I think it is a good question because my guess - is that the thickness will definitely vary between the two sizes and will vary model to model.

Check the Panerai Website. Perhaps you can find the specs...

Good Luck! Stick around - you have found a great place to hang out!

A luminor is 44mm or nothing.

Thanks for all the responses! I have a 6.75" wrist and was thinking that the 44mm would be too big. I've been looking at the Pam 111 as I like the 'Historic' feel and the manual wind. Any thoughts?

Thanks again,

Jonathan.

Well, I tried on the Pam 111 and it felt a little big for my 6.75 - 6.5" wrists. I usually wear a 40mm watch but lately have been wearing a 42mm watch. Do you think if I purchase the watch it will eventually "grow" on me (will I grow for the watch - Memo: must eat more ice cream).

Jonathan.
