Hi,
Newbie....first Breitling...first post....first question :D
I recently purchased my first new Breitling, the patrouille de france limited edition.
Upon close examination of the polished ss case back, I noticed what looks like brush marks/scratches that run across the entire back. Hopefully you can see some of what I'm referring to from pic's. You have to look close in the right lighting to see it. Is this normal? Or is it a return that was polished? Would appreciate your expertise, as I have 30 days to return.
Thanks!

I would contact the seller and ask him about the issue.

What would you suggest to use for buffing?

Cape cod cloth works well, I buff mine with my polishing motor at my jewelry store, but cloth works awesome
