Re: Omega Titanium Bracelet
In Response To: Omega Titanium Bracelet ()

I have the 2293.50 without the Red gold, and my whole bracelet is the uniform gunmetal gray. I think the picture on the website is probably not accurate. Considering the Omega website can't even depict the right WATCH from the new James Bond movie, getting the highlights wrong on a titanium bracelet isn't a big deal.

BTW - You are now the (hopefully) happy and proud owner of one of the most bombproof Omegas built. Ti is both lighter and stronger than stainless steel, has outstanding corrosion resistance, and to a certain extent the titanium metal protects itself from scratches with the extremely hard oxide layer on its outer surface. If you scratch through that layer, the bare metal will oxidize back over, so to a certain extent the metal is self healing. If you go a diving website and check out the diver's knives, there is one kind that stands out from ALL the rest in both price and performance. Titanium. An SS knife should cost you little more than $100, but the titanium blades start at $350, and are regarded as the ultimate diving knife, both as far as stength and being absolutely imperious to the elements.
