The more I look, the more I think it's a freak reflection. (Look at the images on the top right lug,) Tarnish like this on an 18kt Patek Philippe? Nah.
I'm assuming this will clean right up...
...without 'polishing.' I'd prefer to see the gold color...
I’m not sure I am a big fan of such an oxidation of the case (I should see it in the metal) but…
…I am certainly a huge fan of the 3970 second series 😉
I am a fan of a nice gradual patina on the dial....this doesn't work for me at all.
....just being honest. .
I guess I don’t consider the case being tarnished patina.
I think you can get most of that out with hand polishing with a dry polish cloth. It won’t polish out the scratches, won’t cause any fading of the hallmarks etc. The aging of the dial with color change is the type of patina I wouldn’t want to mess with. ...
