I hope so, because otherwise I will just have to ban Panerai out of my life. Again. Had a PAM 359. Sold it because i found it too big. Then I got a PAM 379.... Sold it, because I found it too big. Surprise, surprise... So, here goes: The day before yesterday I was in a jewelry store getting some jew


The PAM359 represents Panerai's Luminor Marina 1950 3 Days Automatic in a 44mm polished steel configuration. This reference sits within the Luminor Marina series, distinguished by its automatic movement and three-day power reserve capability.
The watch features a 44mm polished steel case paired with a matching polished steel bezel. Protection comes from a 2.6mm sapphire crystal, while water resistance extends to 300 meters. The piece is powered by the Calibre P.9000 movement, providing the stated three-day power reserve through automatic winding.
The PAM359 appeals to collectors seeking a steel sports watch with substantial case dimensions and extended power reserve. The polished steel construction and 44mm sizing position this reference for those preferring larger case proportions within the Luminor Marina collection. The automatic movement eliminates manual winding requirements while maintaining the three-day reserve specification.
All it needs to be IMHO Hope that you enjoy this iteration more than the first two!
It's a good comment, smart brand. The dial of this is quite clean, looks good. The other thing I know about Panerai is I cannot tell the difference which model is which, new or old but that's just me being ignorant. Congrats...do I sound like a Dutch ) Rgds Raymond
Perfect for the spring and even better for the winter when it is all gloomy and dark.
Congratulations on the purchase. I don't know what is your wrist size. Mine is 6.25. I have always stayed away from Panerai because of the size. However, on my recent trip to New York, I stepped into the Panerai boutique and tried the 42 mm 512 and 392. Loved both of them. 512 sat better on the wrist but 392 has a better presence. Will difinitely buy one out of those 2 in the future. The 40 mm model is being discontinued and 42 mm will become the minimum size going forward.
42 suits me fine and the question of "is it too big?" will never arise. cheers fernando
great watch selection. the size is perfect for your wrist. definitely does not look "girly" at all. the 42mm panerai are still big, see attached comparison photo with 39mm RL automotive chronometer
