Re: Question on new SMP 2055.80

:I used to have the titanium and liked it much better on my wrist than in the jewelers case. The electric blue face looks much better in natural light. I, too, am not crazy about the dull look of titanium, but the watch had just enough SS highlights to make it appealing, plus I liked the blue face. I eventually sold the watch and bought an X-33. Recently, I saw a picture of my new watch and really liked the look. I prefer SS since the watch has more life to it in SS, especially with the electric blue face. The bezel is polished and with that blue face, the watch is much sharper looking than the titanium version. BTW, I did not see much difference in the blue face of both watches, except that the bright SS bezel does bring out the blue better.
