Re: Not a fan of Ti
In Response To: Re: Not a fan of Ti ()

I AM a fan of Titanium, and wouldn't trade my 2293.52 for anything else. It is noticably lighter AND stronger AND more corrosion resistant than SS. If you want a bombproof watch, get a Ti SeMP. It also sets you apart from EVERYBODY (and their dogs) who have SS watches. It has NO bling factor whatsoever, except with the kind of people who hang out in here and know fine watches. When I was cruising the watch shops in St. Thomas all the vulture-like sales people recognized the Ti color on my wrist and left me alone rather than asking if I wanted to "trade up" to something else. As far as rarity goes, Titanium watches are about as few and far between as the 6 figure platinum watch "collector" market, except they cost a lot less.
