I’d say simply just a evolution of collecting, and taste. And for most of us to buy something else means selling something, it made most sense to pair back the Panerai collection in order to fund other watches. I did also own several 47mm Panerai which objectively were just too big for my wrist (although my wrist was a little thicker at that time too), it was easy and made sense to sell those once I came to that realization.
Panerai was the first brand outside of Rolex where I owned multiple watches, and the brand that brought me online, to get togethers (albeit only a limited few) etc.

Good points…

I have been on the fence about letting 587 go. What I should do is actually wear it and give it a fair chance. I was actually thinking before that a strap change may make the difference to me. You’ve demonstrated that value nicely as well. Thanks for your...
Absolutely true, I agree with you…

each has different charms and it’s place in a collection. The MM dial and hands are particularly captivating to me, without doubt. I’m convinced now by you and Chronometer to keep the 587. I am sure that by trying other strap options that I will connect b...
