Re: Omega Titanium Bracelet

In Response To: Re: Omega Titanium Bracelet ()

Do you have any information on the grade of SS that IS actually used in Omega watches?? The difference in weight between an SS Seamaster and a titanium one is literally enough to feel with your bare hands, and in a comparison of stength to weight ratio titanium is clearly better. They didn't make the SR-71 out of SS, did they?? The highest grade racing blocks on sailboats are also titanium rather than SS. I also think that the durability of titanium is reflected in the fact that it's a bitch to machine and work with, and just the intransigence of the metal itself makes it prohibitive for anyone to come out with fake watches made out of titanium.
