Sorry Nicolas,
about the late reply. When I got the watch, I did some research on accelerating the development of the patina as well as cleaning the watch without damaging it. I read a few articles, ranging from hardcore chemistry to everyday household tips. In one of the household tips articles, I read about lemon juice and ketchup, and I confirmed it on one of the Panerai forums. I figured it would be harmless to try, and I did not have any lemons!LOL!
Best regards

I can't even imagine what it would look like in 60 years..
since it is only about 90 days old. I have to admit that I am loving the way it changes every day. Best regards Nicolas Victor
LOVE me some PATINA :-)

Thank you Luis.
It is true that they will all age differently, and the cool thing is that you can see the changes almost day to day. Best regards Victor
Great patina picture of your Panerai PAM507 !

Hhehe didn't know about the ketchup trick!
Thanks for sharing your story! Cheers, Anthony
Mine has never been like that.
Is the pool water fresh with chlorine or salt water? Best regards Victor

One question though...
Did you sell the 382 before it developed any patina or your 382 did NOT patina at all? Would have thought they've used the same material between 382 & 507?
I did not own a 382.
A friend of mine owns it, and I just tried it on when he bought it. I have been told, that it is the exact same formula on both the 507 and 382, but my watch has never looked like some of the 382 I have seen( including the one in this thread) even after b...
