Panerai is getting a little silly

[Yoda]

From a tool watch to a toy....looks like a $15 watch..

I knew Panerai "jumped the shark" when they started using snapback case backs. For a couple thousand usd watch, that is really sad.

Yoda's comments are very accurate.

Edit for non US members:

The idiom "jumping the shark" is pejorative, most commonly used in reference to unsuccessful gimmicks for promoting something. It is similar to "past its peak", but it more specifically suggests an unwillingness to acknowledge the fact. Originally, the phrase was used to describe an episode of a television comedy with a gimmick or unlikely occurrence desperately attempting to keep viewers' interest. Moments labeled as "jumping the shark" are considered indications that writers have exhausted their focus, that the show has strayed irretrievably from an older and better formula, or that the series as a whole is declining in quality.

The usage of "jump the shark" has subsequently broadened beyond television, indicating the moment when a brand, design, franchise, or creative effort's evolution declines, or when it changes notably in style into something unwelcome

I think that watch looks pretty sharp. I would like to see what it would look like on a leather strap.

Why haven't they learned to pass these great ideas by the members here on H-F first? It's free. We will steer them right. It would be the best business decision they could make.

We are derailing the thread.

Anyway, this Tudor is a sharp looking piece!
As a matter of fact, I prefer Tudor over Rolex.
