and before that, the last time I bought a regular production model, I was still wearing sort pants I've had some 35-40 Panerais (I still own some 25 of them) and the only "tragic one" I had was a first-production-year 233. At the time I was traveling like...

That is a crazy amount! So how does that rotation look like? I can only have 3 watches at a time or else I go nuts trying to figure which one to wear!!! Panerai has definitely cheapened their quality in recent years. From the snap in case backs to single ...
