For anyone wondering, the watch above is an SBGX091. Mine just came in this week. My second GS and thrilled with it.

If such concerns are your primary focus, then you be better off looking at something ceramic.
I could care less about scratches.
I just want to know if there's anything unique with Ti.
Put it this way, I wouldn't want to be buying a bronze watch assuming it will age over time like SS. That's a surprise waiting to happen, and not a good one at that if you are not expecting the bronze patina.

I am seriously thinking about that Snowflake. But I wanna see what Basel has in store first. Got a few other watches on the radar.

I bought two new straps yesterday but I could only squeeze the suede on the 19mm GS.
That’s okay, the other looks great on my nomos.

I have not seen that you have these watches! absolutely fantastic choice! I have the Club Campus 38 and I am considering an SBGM221G at the moment.
