It is Titanium 351 lighter than the 312 steel?

[Aventura]

I love the PAM 312 and the only doubt that I have is that I read that it is quite heavy, but I found another model that is made of titanium the PAM 351 and is not worth much more than the 312 and is exactly the same except the color of the dial and golden hands. Mi question is: It is Titanium lighter than steel? What I do not like are the models that have the brushed bezel. I prefer bright chrome.
Cheers...

i own the Pam 311 which is the brown titanium version of the Pam 275 (black steel). Side by side there is a large difference in weight. With larger watches there is a noticeable wrist difference in weight between Steel and Titanium.

Def lighter

Titanium is so light that if it were not strapped to your wrist, it would float away

It is a great metal; I own many knives with Ti handles. It can scratch easily.

Thanks guys.

You will struggle to find a chrome bezel

.... and like others have said, Ti marks easily, but easy to remove with an eraser.

Ti will be lighter. I prefer a bit of 'heft' so tend to stick with steel.

Even lighter with the Ti bracelet.

with leather straps, i don't think there's a BIG difference between SS and Ti for a watch head.

for me, i decided to compromise: for the case, going with the brightness of SS, but the more subdued (IMO) look of brushed over polished.

On the new brown rubber. (Pix quality no good. Brown not obvious.) Matches the tobacco dial perfectly.

Thanks - its a great colour and wonderful match with the dial.

I read the new rubber straps are longer and there does seem to be a good amount of tail after the last hole!

How does it wear?

[jojosnr]

Wears great. Comfy, with good thickness yet flexible.

Welcome a response. Thanks

Slightly below USD 200 from the boutique.

Great look.

been having it in steel. Would love to test out the titanium version soon ..

[chazha]

I did my 312 because it was too heavy. The titan version should be a lot lighter and I might be getting one in the best future.

I daily wear the Pam 352 -- much lighter than steel and very comfortable. Plus the dial is unique -- a bonus

[Lol-x]

That is a lovely watch Scott00.
I have to say that the brown dial is growing on me...
Is that a full titanium bracelet, and if so is that standard with the watch or is a high dollar option?

[jojosnr]

If I may chip in. 352 comes with the ti bracelet.

Thank you cheers

I've owned both a 320 and 351, and the 351 is substantially lighter. Great for small wrists! :)
