For Hodinkee's Managing Editor, Danny Milton, there are only a few watches that have perpetually caught his attention over the course of his endless enthusiasm. One of those timepieces is the Panerai Radiomir in its most basic of forms. So, when Panerai launched the Radiomir Quaranta in 40mm - the perfect size for his wrist - Danny jumped at the chance to wear it. And after a week on the wrist, he didn't want to take it off.

This is one of the better Hodinkee reviews. Danny did a great job sizing up all the points - both good and bad, placed it all in the larger history of Panerai, and defined the ideal buyer. Also, he leaned into a more conversational, almost confessional, “I'm going to tell you what I really think about this” watch. Good stuff!

Its beautiful, price is restrained, and the lug-to-lug is perfect, below 50 mm means almost anyone can enjoy it. Great review, Hodinkee.

@Kcseales 10 месяцев назад

It is actually 50m of water resistance now. They only release a few models which said 30m on the back, but from now on they all say 50m. It is actually tested up to 200m. However, they bare on the side of caution when labeling the water resistance. But every year they increase the listed water resistance on their watches. But best believe these can withstand more than 50m. Cheers!

@off-roadingcars Год назад

Love the review! You did a great job with the pictures, the story, and discussing the watch. My Panerai’s are all 47mm but I welcome the smaller additions for people that want them

@MisterKnightly Год назад

Panerai dress watch. Perfect.

@Wirbelmeister Год назад

I bought myself this watch and the newer productions have a 50m WR rating. The low WR comes from the very thin saphire crystal. I think this watch could handle swimming due to the screw down crown, but who would go swimming with a leather strap anyways...

I considered this, and the Due, but eventually went with a Luminor Quaranta. 40mm, crown guard, and 100m WR. In the end I felt I needed this thing to at least handle being in the water.

As an owner of a PAM00048, this could easily be the next purchase for me when I’m 50. Great design and it will never go out of style.

@georgetsang5780 Год назад

Bought a Luminor Quaranta last October and tried on this very same Radiomir a month ago. The only issue I have with this watch is that it would take forever (demonstrated by the salesperson) to change straps as I am now used to the Luminor quick change system to switch from one to another. Still like it a lot but the 10-minutes-to-change-a-strap issue was a turnoff.

@dmeets Год назад

Can confirm, my Luminor is much easier to swap than my Radiomir.

@DaveMGmovies Год назад

Nice watch and super review. But why oh why has Panerai opted for a mere 30m water resistance? Every budget watch these days comes with 100m. If you're dropping 6,000 bucks you want to be able to wear it in the rain.

@rkhmelnytskyy 9 месяцев назад

@MrSaadmubarak Год назад

The Luminor quaranta gets the sizing right while keeping a decent water resistance.

@GrumblingForesight Год назад

Lovely video and great writing as always but that 30m WR is simply bewildering. Anyone know of any videos out there that explains the reasons why they cant give this watch more water resistence? Even the diver style Seiko 5s are 100m resistant at 38mm.

@pilotstyle123 Год назад

There was an interview with Panerai when the watch came out. They said even making it 100m would add 1mm thickness which they didnt want

@GrumblingForesight Год назад

@@pilotstyle123 i guess that helps explain it then, they were trying to hit that sub 11mm thickness to create their first “dressy” watch. Thanks!

@Armoer Год назад

For me, even more bewildering is the screw-down crown. Why would they do that? That’s the worst of both worlds

@pilotstyle123 Год назад

@@Armoer You can picture a screwdown crown as a first line of defense. Against common belief it is not the scredown crown that gives waterresistance but the gaskets. However, the screwdown keeps off a lot of incidental splash etc that might otherwise reach the gaskets. For me personally I enjoy screwdowns because I like the interaction with the watch. It gives me a feeling of having a well machined product.

@Armoer Год назад

@@pilotstyle123 I understand, I enjoy it too. But a screw-down crown is a relatively expensive solution. I don’t understand why they didn’t invest in a good gasket that does a better job for probably less money.

@janson2911 9 месяцев назад

The only drawback to me is the date window, not only it breaks the sandwich dial continuity, the date script is white, not ivory like the lume. If it doesn’t have the date window and have a transparent case back, it’ll be the perfect Panerai for me. The 30m water resistance is fine, you wouldn’t wear it to go swimming anyway

It's a beautiful piece for those with smaller wrists. You have to laugh at the ignorant people who think 30m / 100ft is not sufficient to go swimming in. Water resistance is a meaningless metric for the vast majority of watch owners.

@xu10j4rs1 Год назад

It's not the point, the irritation is that it's pure laziness and reduces trust in the brand, Rolex can do 100m in a tiny DJ.

@xu10j4rs1 Год назад

30m doesn't mean you can swim down 30m btw, just so you're clear!

@dmeets Год назад

@xu10j4rs1 It doesn't reduce trust for anyone who isn't naive enough to think depth ratings matter. It simply will not have a tangible impact to the buyers of this watch. I remember caring about depth ratings earlier into my collecting journey (which includes Rolexes, Panerai's, etc) and over time you realize it's a meaningless number for the vast majority of people who will never go diving in that watch. It's a marketing department fixation more than anything else.

@heinerjurgens5362 Год назад

@@dmeetswouldn’t call it meaningless when you have to be careful when washing your hands on a daily basis. :D Everything After 100m is mostly meaningless.

@@dmeetsit is not about going swimming or diving with a watch. I will absolutely never do that sort of thing, but it gives me a relaxed wearing experience knowing I don’t need have to consider it. The 100m WR is a testament to how well the case is constructed and sealed. It is a testament of build quality and durability, even when you don’t go swimming with it. It shows that a brand cares to oblige to the standard quality levels we may expect from a 6000 dollar luxury (sports) watch

@neilpovey8971 9 месяцев назад

It's clearly a dress watch, not a dive watch. If you want a dive watch, don't buy this. If you like the Radiomir styling for a dress watch, fill your boots.

@nessuno6110 3 месяца назад

It's a Panerai. Nobody would buy a slow Ferrari. Panerai means Water. If it can't swim, it's not a Panerai. The date function is useless as it takes away space from what could have been a higher water resistance architecture.

@AGTsakumis Год назад

I love that you love it, but I'm a long time watch collector and a Panerai less than 44mm is too small. It doesn't do it justice. I'm sorry. But I'm delighted you're enjoying it. Panerai remains one of my favorite watches.

@fabiankunz7599 Год назад

I simply don't understand why certain brands are still not putting in that extra effort to make a watch be in line with the essence of its brand story.. this is a prime example, a Panerai with 30m WR is just a joke. same thing the VC 56 base model that does not carry the Geneva seal. not in the market for a watch like that, but if I was, that missing WR would be a deal breaker for me, dress watch or not..

@vladinecko Год назад

I don’t get why the reviewer believes the closed case back is a welcome feature on a watch that is 30m water resistant. Do you think a sapphire case back would bring it down to 15m? This is at an age when even Rolex is replacing their (extremely unattractive) solid case backs with sapphire exhibition ones. The solid case back on this watch is a major turn off for me. As boring as a PAM movement can look, I’d still rather have a view of it than some stamped, dead piece of stainless steel.

Sorry but Panerai as a brand is a joke, I know no one will use 100m but is say volumes about the brand downgrading their watches. Lowered their WR (300m to 100m), took away their display backs, movement decoration /engraving and sandwich dials from the base models. The only option it to buy an older used Panerais but the fakes are so good no one wants to. Panerai will not come out with a database to help their used market with super clones. Without a used market their is no retail market.
