Titanium as a metal is around 45% lighter than Stainless Steel. When you account for the movement, it is around 40% lighter. It truly is a different feeling - I personally didn't like it at first but the comfort level is amazing and over time it has become my de facto travel watch due to how lightweight it is.

What makes the snowflake and GS titanium so amazing is the fact that it is a special grade of high intensity titanium that obtains a color and sheen unlike any I've seen. It is slightly darker be can be mistaken for stainless steel. The Zaratsu polish on such a metal is truly spectacular.

When I wear my snowflake; it is like I am wearing a really light watch, but the finishing and the reflection of it makes it feel like true luxury. If you're worn a Patek Aquanaut - it is the same feeling for me.
