Luminor Marina Carbotech Blu Notte 44mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 44 mm case suggests

Panerai Luminor Marina Carbotech Blu Notte 44mm measures 54 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 74% of the 27 Panerai watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 60 mm (2.36 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 72 mm (2.83 in) it starts to look compact. Below 54 mm (2.13 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 13.5 mm thick it sits within the typical range, thicker than 72% of the watches with a listed thickness.
