Fits FAR BETTER than i expected given my medium-to-touch-small wrist (yet wide top surface). Due to short lugs, the band 'hugs' the side of my wrist just right. No flop or slop. Also like that the movement has no slack when setting the time. She's also a touch lighter than i expected, given, well, this is a Panerai and have held many older models over the years and wow those things are HEFTY! She has weight, just not 5 lbs hammer weight.

Only complaint, Panerai should have supplied a second buckle for the fancy rubber strap, which is how i'm wearing her now as do A LOT of water / ocean sports. Already ordered orange, black, and red straps that come with buckle (from China, sorry, can't justify $180 for a piece of rubber).

IMHO you really get a lot of great features with the PAM01033. jmho

And OMG that luuuuume is sooo seductive!
