I agreed on your views
Not a fan of Panerai, however i believed they are trying to play high-end to elevate their brand's status and cheapen their entry ranges to feed new customers. Dilemma indeed. Same for AP, just too many ROO.

One driving technical's envelop, while latter chosen to be bold w/their Minerva movement. And Cartier De Drive & Santos are stunningly created.

I've been contemplating adding another watch to my modest collection
and was looking forward to seeing the latest. For better or worse I think you're spot-on in your observations, especially with regard to IWC and the new Cartier offerings in steel (nicely done, Cartier). As for Panerai I've never had the wrist for them an...
I’m with you on this summary.
He new UN FREAK for me is a standout new piece from this year’s SIHH
