GAP between case and bezel pam351
Hello, recently i got offered a pam351 from a trusted watch store in my country, ive been looking for this pam351 for so long, but the thing is ive noticed theres a quite big gap on the left side of the watch (left side only) . I read about thread that confirms the gap was normal but i think i would be normal if the gap was only on 10-11 clock OR 8-9. But this gap on 2 spot ( 10-11 & 6-9)
Heres i put some picture |

what im aware is this watch have been polished / service before and what bother me is some store/seller in my country (Indonesia) tend to do the maintenance of their watch to unauthorized service centre. so you think the gap is not normal? |

Do you have better picture of the case? There appears to be no brushed grain lines in the side of case based off the way the light is reflecting off of it. Has it been repolished? The reflection off the top lug does not show any brush lines at all, rather more of a satin spray.

I have a 351 and have the same upper left gap. Apparently it's there to make the bezel easier to remove during service. If you Google "panerai bezel gap" there are a number of resources and forums on this.
However, mine does not have the lower gap. It looks like your bezel was potentially removed and was not attached back correctly. |
