>Nothing about a panerai requires being as huge as they are.
Historical accuracy.
Panerai started making wrist watches in the 1930s using pocket watch movements, hence the large cases. Whether you like the brand or not is irrelevant (I personally dislike their models), Panerai is part of the horological history and deserves respect.
You can't seethe at 41mm Datejust and then ask for 36mm Radiomir.
