Congratulations on your new watch Vilit!! There is no need to justificate why you purchased it. You like it so much and fell in love and...

... it works for you both as aesthetically pleasing to your taste and how it feels on your wrist and going perfectly with your clothings. What else is needed to like or love any watch?

Yes, Panerai DNA marks a big sized watch, it is true. But that big size which we Paneristi love has refrained many people who like the design, love the story behind the brand, but felt the 47 mm models look monstrously on their wrist of having the pleasure of owning a Panerai.

In my home, my wife is not a person which pays much attention to watches, and though she likes my Panerai never thought in asking one to try on her wrist. But in the last three years she fell in love with the Duo line and she recently bought her second Pam. And I must confess I like them so much and would wear them gladly if my wife hadn´t insisted in changing the supllied black straps for some rose or green "girlish" colors! Lol!

I feel the Due line though abandoning the big size characteristic of the brand will open the interest for Panerai to many people both male and female with thin wrists and/or tastes for smaller sized watches and with big love for the designs we old timers have been enjoying for a long time. And this is good I think.

Enjoy your new watch so much and in the best of good health Vilit!!  Cheers! Abel.

I heard this is a controversial piece among Paneristis. So I went to AD to check it out. If you leave the water resistance issue and PAM's DNA violation out, this is an attractive watch. This one I call it "a giant dress watch" from Panerai. By intention ...  

Looks like a cup of coffee (brown).

Panerai is right that there is a market for this... DNA or no DNA.

In 20 or 30 years....

if Panerai will still be around, this will be considered a...transitional...piece. Today? I wouldn't buy it at...gun point. That being said, you like it? You like to have it on your wrist? Fantastic, enjoy it

When the Luminor Due 728 was offered to me, my AD knew I would take it because of the slim case size and lightness. My AD was correct. ...  

Ah the old school peeps...

I wonder how many of them wear a Panerai over their wet- or drysuit and go for a long deep dive... If you think about it realistically wearing a thick 47 mm piece of diving metal around the wrist held there by a huge uncomfortable clasp which is fighting ... 

Love it
