Dude, I am shocked too!! Panerai is my favorite brand, by far, and the 243 was the one I had wanted for so long. I just never figured that I wouldn't like the weight of it. I just prefer Titanium pieces. And yes, I change watches like most change clothes. 
I would still have my 176 if I hadn't liquidated my entire collection last year... It was for a good reason, but it still sucked. No watch has held any significant meaning to me since I did that.
**I should also add that I thought I would like the cyclops date window on the 243, but it just doesn't do it for me either. I much prefer my timepieces to A-not have a date or B-have a date with no cyclops. I guess I should just get a PAM 305, since it is Titanium, has a date, and no cyclops.

Raiff, I have tried on the 305 and love it. Pic is of the 305 on my wrist So light and fits wrists our size perfectly Only problem for me is the "loose" feel of the bezel, especially compared to the Deep Sea bezel which has a "quality" feel. Will likely be my next piece.
