42mm Radiomir with domed crystal

Hi Everyone,

I haven't been wearing Panerai for many years now but I'm thinking to get one again.
I've narrowed it down to a 42mm radiomir, but I'd like a domed crystal like the 233 which I have owned in the past.
Does anyone know if that exists?

Thanks!

Nope.

Not sure how that would look, with the wire lugs and overall trimmed down aesthetic, especially the 42 Rads.

I am not aware of any 42mm Radiomir 1940 models that have domed crystals. There are several special editions in 47mm that have one. I own the PAM514 which is more or less the standard 47mm Radiomir 1940 and I absolutely love it though it has neither of the criteria you are searching for.

I’ve held 98,141,184,338,512 and 574 but none of them have domed crystal

I think there are no smaller rads with domed crystal,it’s only reserved for bigger models like 514,690,932 and the likes

Maybe next year they’ll make domed radiomir in carbotech with experience package...probably becoming an italian version of James Bond

I like 338 better than 337 or 512 because the dial color is more unique (charcoal-y) and the hands are gold,the titanium case is a bonus
