Same here; too big for my wrist. They are nice looking, but I think they could become cliche like Breitling did in late 90's and early 2000's. Panerai are very stylised and it's up to the consumer to decide if that style will keep them coming back. They do a nice job with detailing the movement.

Agreed! I love their history, but doubt that most folks that buy them know or even care about the watch's history. I think that they are very stylish, but I question whether they will last the trendy popularity.
