New Panerai Bronzo - care tips!

[mmarturo]

Hello all!

I am very happy because I just pulled the trigger on a new Panerai Bronzo:
http://www.pure-time.com/product/pa...on-brown-distressed-calfskin-strap-zp9000-v2/

This is my second watch I order, I can't wait for it to arrive!

Do you guys have any tips of how to maintain or care for this watch/brand?

Thank you very much

It depends on what you want to do with the Bronzo. But you can read up on the many PAM382 threads to learn what to do for each situation.

Thank you mystery. Sorry for not being that clear.
In fact I've been reading but only found aesthetics concerns. I however think I will let it be as it arrives.

In terms of movement maintenance or functionality. Is it necessary to adjust internal screws or something like that? I've found some posts complaining about the reliability of the Asian 7750.

Thank you,

The first thing to do after you receive the watch, wind it by shaking your hand lightly, use the watch for a half day, and then report to us how long it can last after you take off the watch...

Sure, I will let you know as soon as I receive it. Can't wait :/

But can you resist not putting that on a few days straight, at least in the beginning?

Regarding outside maintance, you can clean the watch with combo of lemon and salt or you can just use ketchup and cloth...

The A7750 (seconds @ 9) in the Bronzo does not appear to be as "fragile" as those installed as Chronos. Mine has kept perfect time since receiving it.

I've had mine in the ocean numerous times with no issues. You'll need to decide what you want to do with the finish. I love the look of natural patina in bronze, so have done nothing to mine. The salt water has given it a good starting patina that does not look forced or fake at all.

I suppose if you are going to give it a LOT of wrist time, a basic service (clean/lube) would be a good investment.
