I agree. The best of Panerai is in their past. They need to standardise a model range and make them properly. 30m water resistance on an Italian Navy dive watch is ridiculous, and that's only one of Richemont's heinous sins.
For those who love the brand, the best watches are already in the market, and available at a significant discount (compared to the ridiculous MSRP). The market doesn't need a flyback chrono GMT moon phase annual calendar with a power reserve and BBQ timer crammed into the already busy dial. Yet Richemont will make it anyway and take the brand further from its roots.
