40mm Panerai Luminor
40mm Panerai Luminor
Hi, i always think that 40mm is the best for 6.5 inches wrist not the 44mm or 47mm. What do you think? Would you wear one for a wrist between 6.5-7 inches?

nope, you want a 44mm case, preferably 1950 luminor.
the 40 (and 42 imo) are not wide enough to balance the width/weight of these cases well, and they wear top heavy. 44mm spreads the load and wears very well balanced.
6.5 - 6.75 here and 44 is the sweet spot for sure

Small wristed one here. I wear a 44mm 562 and it wears well.

6.5 inch wrist
Re: 40mm Panerai Luminor
If you can try them on. Try them on and decide what fits you best. Some feel self conscious wearing something that just looks too large for their wrist. Some think it looks fine
The cushion case makes the watch wear smaller than a fully round case
There's always the Due models. Some people look down on them as they're no where near as water proof as the screwback models, but if you don't swim with them and at best a desk diver. Could work for you as they're slimmer

44mm is the one you want. The lugs drape the wrist nicely.
I think my 560 wears better than my 42mm 683 submersible tbh.
