This discussion provides valuable insights for collectors considering larger Panerai models, highlighting how case design influences wearability. The thread also delves into the technical merits of the P.3000 caliber, offering a comprehensive perspective for potential owners.
The Panerai Radiomir PAM721 is a reference within the Radiomir model line. This specific reference is noted for its "less is more" design approach.
The watch features a case and movement. Details regarding the specific case material, crystal type, and movement architecture are not provided.
This reference appeals to collectors who appreciate a minimalist aesthetic within the Panerai Radiomir collection. Its design emphasizes simplicity.
you are able to try it on yourself at an AD or Boutique. While the 47 mm wire-lug Radiomirs wear smaller than the solid-lug 47 mm Rads and especially the 47 mm Luminors, they are still 47 mm. It might not be your cup of tea on the wrist. No issues with the movement. In my experience the P.3000 is one of the better "in-house" Panerai movements made for them by Val Fleurier, which is the movement supplier for Richemont's brands. The ability to set the hour hand independently in one-hour jumps forw
So many watch photos are taken from too close a perspective but your second picture shows how it will look from a typical distance. I'm very happy with the movement -- no problems after several years with any PAMs I've had with this movement. Seek quality from a reputable seller and you'll find a fair price -- $10k is too high and the wrong seller.
And you'll be surpised at how good it looks on you. Judging from your 2nd photo, you're EASILY able to pull it off. Looking at it straight up from the wrist like in the 3rd photo usually makes it look bigger from your point of view. To illustrate, I have a 6.75 inch wrist and this is how a 372 looks like on the opposite end.. So the 721 on your 7 should be no problem.. Good luck!
if i compare the 47mm case size between the Luminor 1950 case Vs Radiomir case, the Radiomir will be thin & flat on wrist but the 'dial' real estate is quite bigger than Luminors. my wrist size is same as you, both Radiomir & Luminor case are comfortable - not too big.
Does this mean that none of those pics is your wrist? If so, what is your wrist size? Mine is 7.25" (18.5 cm) and the 721 fits just right. Sorry, I do not have a head on shot to post.
