There is nothing wrong with a brand creating lines to cater to a wider audience. After all, it is a business. When Porsche went from the last air cooled motor in the 993 to the water cooled motors of today, purist screamed bloody murder and complained how it was no longer a real Porsche. Porsche is doing just fine today?
AP, PP and VC mass produced? Hmmm...

I tried on the Due 42mm this week and was really impressed. A really nice, classy dress watch. I like seeing Panerai stepping out a bit with design.
