The basic philosophy of Panerai is simplicity,and one of the selling point of their 12/12 gmt in which you can hide the gmt hand behind the main hour hand...if they do 24 hrs gmt,they have to add 24 hours chapter ring or bezel thus making the watch looks busier than necessary
With that logic, who needs a watch at all? The GMT hand indicates the home time, not the local time. You could very well be someplace where its dark but your home time has daylight.

If they stood by this design, they wouldn't have added the AM/PM to the new ones. It's a bad design.
