Arie - Mr Orange challenges perceptions of Panerai's size with his PAM 574, comparing its dimensions to a 40mm A. Lange & SΓΆhne 1815. He explores how the Luminor's case shape and dial design contribute to its larger wrist presence despite its modest thickness. The post also delves into the P.1000 movement's unique hacking seconds feature and its practical implications for a watch without a minute track.
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.
The kermit green makes it hard to be neutral on this one. And the more modest size makes it more universal in terms of wrists it will fit, even if the strap makes it less so otherwise
Did not know it was a limited edition
the 1000 is the max. numbers they will put out in 1 year. (Panaristi: please correct me if i'm wrong)
It can be a millsesime of 500, 1000, 1200, 1500, 2000 and so on... per year. Best, Nicolas
And indeed, they are almost the same size but then again the Panerai looks so much bigger on the wrist, with a nice presence. I\'m glad to see this post on your PAM574, I was hesitating on this model but you wear it beautifully and indeed ideal for the summer. Congrats !!! Great choice. PS : the ALS is off course awesome
It\'s a fun watch with this kind of strap, and having the possibility to turn it around in a dressy kind of watch is nice. The dimensions of the case make it an all rounder.
