Luminor Marina ‘Bronzo’ 44mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 44 mm case suggests

Panerai Luminor Marina ‘Bronzo’ 44mm measures 54.3 mm lug-to-lug on a 44 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.23 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 98% of the 7,421 watches in this database and longer than 93% of the 27 Panerai watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 61 mm (2.40 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 73 mm (2.87 in) it starts to look compact. Below 54.3 mm (2.14 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.

At 13.7 mm thick it is on the thicker side, thicker than 76% of the watches with a listed thickness.
