Favourite titanium watches?

[PickleB]

the Deivas rubber and clasp work just as well and are around 1/2 the sinn outlay. just be careful when you start cutting the Deivas as the plastic former at the link end can be quite brittle as I found on my 1st attempt :(

They do look good. Do you buy them from the USA? I ask as I cannot find a UK supplier, nor one in Europe. I'll do a better search once I'm on my PC rather than a tablet, as at present.

Breitling Aerospace Evo, most comfortable watch I've ever owned.

Tempted to get one of but the shiny Bezel is putting Me off... Wonder if it can be tweak to have a matte finish?

Bezel is ceramic - does admittedly look pretty shiny in that photo but I was directly under a light and I wouldn't call that photo representative of 'normal service'. Can't say I find it an issue most other times.

These look good, but 5.5k! Anyone got one?

A very good watch, the titanium was a real bonus for me.

Probably just as well java is no longer a member here – he’d be doing his nut at the sight of this thread and mere mention of the word when it comes to watch material.

From memory he also hated brown straps and anyone who disagreed with his opinion.

Yep, the 42mm version and 21% knocked off from retail

Yes that's lovely, really like the blue. It's on the list for next year :)

After what I'd consider a blonde moment, I found another near the bottom of one of the boxes.

I bought mine from Gnomon watches, based out of Singapore I believe, for $120us/$190nz. the equivalent Sinn in 20mm was over $500 but we have to buy from an idiot in Brisbane Aus who is up there with ashtrays on motorbikes and openly states he doesn't want to sell part or accessories and just sell watches (top AD to have) gone are the old days of emailing Sinn direct :(

the Dievas strap is not the same quality as the Sinn but I would happily say 90% of the quality for less than 50% of the money. the clasp is bloody good, maybe a bit broader than the Sinn but it sits as nicely on my wrist.

My mistake...I'd assumed that Gnomon was a US seller.

Good news that you've found a half-way decent source for what you need and want. Bad news , very bad news, that the AU outlet is so unhelpful. I can understand that they won't supply spares parts for the internals, but straps, bracelets etc should be readily available. Have you emailed Sinn in Germany to query their policy? It might be worth the effort...

I think they have a US operation just not sure how the distribution works.
The Sinn AD does provide parts and accessories, he would just rather not! I sent my initial enquire to Sinn who replied with the AD in Oz details so I had to go through him, which basically means double handling of everything. I wanted a set of U1 hands and a red on black date wheel from the EZM3 to do a wee mod, after over a week of confirming the date wheel would fit the watch he ordered parts. the dicking about wasn't the issue its more the fact that im in NZ and I have to deal with an effectively overseas agent and not the point of origin. this means that I pay for parts and shipping from Germany to Aus 60odd euros then another 45aus $ to get it here (for 3hands a date wheel and a strap) but thems the breaks as is said.

derailing this thread somewhat so end it here. give the Dievas a go, im sure it will be everything you need.

i also love titanium...people have already posted samples of many that I have - IWC 3536, Ocean Bund, aquatimer 3538, the pelagos, and the capeland.

some others that were not yet posted include:

my preferred travel watch along with some eco-drives

[searat]

Here's one of my titanium collection - Yes Kundalini, showing the 'solstice' sunburst screen this time of year..



I mostly use this watch as my travel alarm as it remembers two time zones and shows me local sunrise and sunset at my destination, quite a useful feature as there isn't always a signal or wifi for a smartphone.

Very nice it is indeed.

Anyone know how much these weigh. It was interesting to see on the other titanium thread that many of the titanium watches are still fairly heavy
Thanks

Here's one I sold on some years ago. Actually, my only dabble with Ti, thinking about it.

Lovely little watch and 'light as a fevver'...

[adrianw]

Does my Deepsra half count as it is half Titanium ?

[hhhh]

X-33 Gen 2 is up there for me...




Also had this...






And a Pam 176 which was superb and one that I should never have sold

[Ser3 J]

Years ago I had a Citizen promaster Tough on a Kevlar strap. It was a great watch and after selling my ceramic sub (first 'proper' watch) to someone on the forum I am now looking for an IWC 3536.
However, I um-ed and ah-ed over the recent EZM1 on sales corner and now really fancy that as well...

So 3536Ti or EZM1 for me this year!
