Unfortunately this thread is not for selling Bronzo watches it's for exchange ideas about our experience dealing with it either to be shinny or build up patina

Hope this helps

This thread is not for posting QCs for checking, unless they are asked for. There is a separate thread for the PAM382 where QC Pics are allowed.

What is the options he offered you to fix it & will cost you more money

Are you gonna ship it again to him & get exposed to weather conditions again

It seems to me the watch wasn't sealed right and the dealer didn't check its water proofing that what makes problems with the dial and oxidize the hands

This is his problem he should fix it without extra cost

Send the watch back at my own risk, plus pay for shipping. If the watch gets "lost" it's my loss. If they receive the watch they will reimburse me minus shipping.

I can purchase a new dial from them for $25 plus shipping and find a local watch-smith to repair it myself.
(Not an option because if there is moisture in the watch the entire movement needs to be replaced)

I can sell the watch on M2M and he will cover up to $125 of my loss.

Just an update with my debacle. So now the dealer is trying to tell me that the watch that I have is different from the one that he sent me and he's calling me "shady" He threatend to ban me from both forums if I opened a dispute. Any advice?

Send him the picture showing the moisture at the center of the hands when he took QC pics and the one you have now

I really suggest bringing in the staff into this. Bubbles on the dial and rust on the hands are not common occurrences. If it were then we would already have this discussion from the very first PAM reps released.

I'll send you a PM to update you after our last convo. Don't want to clog the thread.

OMG, now I can see the true color of the bronze!
Amazing combo you got there!! I knew that kind of strap only in brown, and yours is amazing!
Congratulations, and thank you very much for the pictures!

Update on my situation. Dealer will be sending me a new dial and new hands at no cost. Glad this was straightened out. Huge thanks to mysterio!

Can anyone reccomend someone who works on watches in the US? I will need to find someone to replace the dial and hands. Where I'm from, just about every watchsmith sells high end watches and I cannot even bear the though of me walking in with a rep and asking for help....

Don't forget to ask for a full movement service

Guys, which version is the newest version for 382? Does it have a decent bezel knurling?

Are there anyone here who is on the same page with me, I always thought these 382s their AR seems like they are very weak! I feel like the glare is everywhere and it made the watch not as elegant...

Would everyone say the blue dial's AR better than the AR on 382 (green dial)?

The newest and best version for the 382 now ir from VSF.
And the AR on the 671 is better
