Hi guys, I just got my first replica, a Noob PAM 360 for about two weeks.
Aside from the wrong 3 dial and too dark color case, the watch itself is a beauty.
Its just that a few days ago, I bumped it with my car's door when I want to close the door.
Small paint got in the watch case, I thought it was a chip in the case, but fortunately it's the car's paint that left in the watch, and easily cleaned.
The problem is, after further inspection, I found a scratch in the crystal. I believe it's very minor, because I had 2 of my friend to inspect and they can't find it, even after I told them where the scratches is. But being an OC, I'm sure many of bros here know how I feel....once you knew its there, forever you can see it.....
I thought a sapphire crystal won't get scratched that easily, wouldn't it?
I was thinking that it maybe the AR, does any PAM expert knows where does the AR applied in this Noob PAM360?
Is it possible to repolish it, or if its the AR coating that is scratched, is it better to reapply the AR coating?
Please advise.
Here's the picture of those scratches....since its very minor, its very hard to capture it and I even have to exaggerate the detail using snapseed. Its the one near the 4 o'clock mark
