Cape Cod will definitely remove the brushed look and make it shiny. You don't want to do that. I would just let nature take it's course on her now.

PAM 382 Bronzo - QC Pics allowed Thread

- Start date
I expected to receive my ZF today, turned out the package was empty and had been signed for by someone else...
Got mine and I love it! It came waterproofed and did some work on the strap to make it softer. Definitely the worst strap I've seen. Performed 10min ketchup service yesterday and it came out clean bur noticed this morning there is some discoloration or patina on h3 side of case and around the 30 mark. Did another ketchup clean and after lemon juice but it doesn't come out. Is this normal?
Should I use some cape cod cloth? I dont want to ruin the brushed look though...
Can you post a pic of the crown

WOW ! that really sucks.... any idea's about who ? and how it happened ? MAN.... that REALLY sucks.
good luck with that.
I live in appartments so there is a possibility tha a neighbor did it but I would have heaed the main door open because I live next to it
Pure .... that is some seriously BAD luck ! I hope you solve the mystery of who took it.
possible you may see it on someones wrist ?
That really is such piss poor luck.
That is really sad pure b ... it seems you just can't get a break with a Bronzo.
Have you notified the TD ... is there anything that can be done from his end or the postal authorities on your end ?
Good luck ..I hope it turns out OK for you.

As everyone else has suggested I would leave it as it is ...once the natural patina starts it won't be noticeable at all.
If you MUST clean it though, I had similar discoloration on mine and I used a Brasso-type cream cleaner on it and it removed all stains without affecting the brushing. You get to square one though with a pristine patina free watch .
Leave it as it is and enjoy the patina happening.

I agree. I had all types of little stains, blemishes, etc. but decided to just let it patina slowly. So far so good.
The TD took his hand off saying he ain't his fault/problem.
I told him if he didn't sent it in a goddamn paper envelope for $60 shipping costs, it probably wouldn't have been ripped open

That's looking perfect!
If you look back at my QC pics, there were several things to complain about including the color, crooked numbers, off colored lever, etc. None of that stands out once the patina kicks in.
I always thought your QC pics were perfect. From the first picture you posted (the one with the pen?) it looked flawless to me. I think you own the best 382 out there
Is your TD Toro? I've told him 3-4 times already to stop shipping using paper envelopes with Tiny amount of bubble wrap. He is the only TD that does that all other TDs use cardboard boxes and full bubble wrap
I experienced the same. I was so damn shocked it came in a paper bag.
