Carbotech repair

Given its location I’d suppose some carefully applied epoxy would seal the surface. I don’t believe a DIY is in the cards to fill the small void I see.

While Carbotech from Panerai is based upon carbon fiber, it appears to be the chopped and powdered pressure infused version. Laid up in layers then cut at various angles to produce the final case. To avoid continued sloughing of debris during ownership I think they must coat it somehow.

So a little epoxy and tiny brushes should be enough to wear it safely. A total restoral may be difficult except by Panerai.
