After wearing my 47mm Luminor for a while, it does feel good to strap on a smaller watch as a respite. A 44mm Luminor is always the perfect size for me.
47 mm watches aren't the most comfortable in the world. After wearing the PAM 232 for a while I get relief by switching to a smaller watch. I think 38 mm - 42 mm is my personal sweet spot....
It's such a strong dial (design). Über Base. But you are absolutely right. 47 mm watches are simply uncomfortable to wear. And that pin buckle is even worse ergonomically speaking. Let's not forget that the Panerai watch is designed to wear on the outside...
