First Order with Andiot - PAM1074

[polskicowboy]

Followed instructions after he sent details via whatsapp. Seems straightforward. I a am patient. This is my 2nd order with a TD (ctime was first and that went smooth).

Curious how a bronze PAM1074 will age and not sure if I will ever clean it or let it develop a unique aged look. I plan to make this my daily watch. TMI - I will search the forum for a blue matching rubber strap. Going to water test with local watchsmith who wears a massive PAM and is the reason I started looking at PAMs. He is cool and I don't think will be offended at all.

Flying away..........

Happy with the watch. Shipping to USA was in less than two weeks. I never saw the QC pics but I also did not look in the QC photo album either. Note, that the lume on the outer bezel is too white and not correct shade of brown (not brown enough to match dial lume). Not a huge turn off to me but seems like such an easy fix to make it perfect. Came with both rubber and leather straps. Currently using the rubber strap until the weather cools down. Already noticing some patina and might clean it once in citric acid and baking soda before I take it in the ocean and then let it get some natural fade on the bronze.

Tested waterproof to 2 bar. Did not test further and guy at shop tested for free.
