but the idea of a..regular production..47mm Radiomir, must have scared be bejeezus out of the Swiss. That's why they created the 45mm line (210- 231-190-183-380) which went rather well. A 47mm Luminor 1950 "brute" is much more sellable, since all the..mucho-machos out there WILL have no compunctions in slapping it on their wrist. A 47mm..daintier...wire-lugged Radiomir, at the time, could only be appreciated by the purists because of the historical DNA. IMO of course
