Radiomir 1940 models in 45mm w/out "Auto" on dial?

  • I got a chance to try on a range of Panerai models a few days ago. I loved the size and feel of the 45mm Radiomir 1940 case-- perfect fit for me.
  • The solid lugs were a way better choice for me than the wire lugs on the other Radiomir collection, and the slim case (height-wise) is really lovely.
  • The "Automatic" text on the dial just kills a lot of the potential models for me-- it throws off the balance, the mismatched font drives me nuts, etc. Just a no-go.
  • Are there discontinued models of the Radiomir 1940 I should be looking around for that are in 45mm but with a manual wind movement or that don't have Automatic on the dial?
  • I'm okay with the Black Seal dial text as that at least matches font-wise.
  • Any idea if there are upcoming models later this year/early next that may fit my requirements? I've looked and can't find much.


Many thanks!
