Polaris 8 days a week. Why get a watch everyone has or has knocked off. I respect the Sub for being a archetypal design but definitely prefer my Polaris.
As I wrote twice now (check your prescription maybe?), the trend towards gaudy design and jewellery adjacent pieces is not for me. Panerai is still luxurious, but it is not jewellery adjacent. This is not the only way to release new designs.
Who said they were angry? I said I'm kinda grossed out by the direction the entire industry is heading, which seems to be towards ultra luxury and jewellery-adjacent gaudy designs. Setting aside price, the big names could also have changed their posture towards more tool type watches, but again, that is not the current trend.
My take: I've never bought a traditional diver because they all essentially mimic the Submariner. The only brand that could overcome this judgement would be their sister brand Tudor and in this case, it works for me. For me, their best looking watch. I would prefer having this plus 5K in cash than a Sub.
