A new AP owner
Just picked this up yesterday. Had to trade in the PAM 320 N but it was well worth it. Have to wait till the shorter strap comes in but I love the look of it.
How do you guys clean the case? Both my Panerai's came with a cleaning cloth, what can I use for this? Also are there OEM straps I can buy? I'm thinking a grey or black horn back would be a great addition. |

Congrats on this new piece.
For cleaning I always use car wash soap with a small boars hair brush with warm water. I never dry wash my watches. I have been using this method for years with amazing results |

The Navy is a great looking piece.
Wear it well. Definately worth trading the 320 to make the AP dream come true! There are other OEM straps you can buy such as hornbacks. A lot pricier than PAM straps, unless you go for something like a rubber. |

Congrats on your Navy, I used to clean my Rolex with an old (soft) toothbrush and some warm soapy water, you could do the same, but gently, just don't get the strap too wet in doing so, then wipe the bezel down going with the grain,that works for mine if it has a few marks
Good luck |
