I just realised I placed my last order quite some time ago. I did not order or buy anything at SIHH 2011 and the same for 2012 hmmmm, 2 years without a new Panerai. Y reason I just got tired of their LIMITED ( ' probably until SIHH next year' ) EDITIONS. ...

... but i call it differently. I think tastes evolve, just not attracted anymore. Though you have raised an important point as i have many friends that feel the same and are fed up with the strategy of throwing a million variations of limited ed, boutique...
