Polished VS Brushed
 
Is there any model PAM that is completely brushed? I know I am going to have a problem keeping the scratches from this nicely polished watch.

PAM 250, 251 and 236 are all brushed if you like chronos.

111h? Mostly brushed.

The 111 is polished on the bezel i believe, if you want something that is simple to take care off and remove any of the day to day scratches then go with the titanium models, something like a 177, 240, etc as these are just so easy to maintain, because it's Ti you can clean up almost any scratch with a bit of light scotchbrite.

Hi Steven,i think so the other way...i have no problem having the scratches "erased" by cape cloth but not possible on the brushed finishes.For the brushed finishes its best to be performed by experience polisher/technician using proper buffering equipment...so in this case i would preferred polished case.:thumbsup: :cheers:

Cape Cod Cloth
 
Where do I get this from?

The 111 is polished everywhere - as far as I know.

Ok I got it!
 
Please instruct me on how to use it. Band on or off? Can it be used on the crystal? scratches are very slight cant be seen immediately. Can cloth be used on back of case? My watch is a PAM90

Tear off a small piece of the cloth to use. Take your strap off. You can take off the crystal - but the Cape Cod won't hurt the crystal. Just rub the cloth until you start seeing the results you want. Buff it off with a good microfiber cloth.

I wouldn't worry too much about polishing the back of the watch - unless you wear it upside down.

The Sammy 111's are all polished. The painted ones have a brushed crown guard.
