Panerai steel alloy
Hey guys,

I was wondering about the steel alloy that Panerai uses for their cases.
I found that it is easier to scratch and different to polish than 316l from brands like Omega and Breitling, I have to adjust the polishing machine RPM in order to get the right finish.

904l (Rolex) gives me the best results though.
