Reply With QuoteI like it - and it does seem an evolution on the ceramic only offering. The Hodinkee LE used this and not heard of any issues. Pricey watch and big at 44mm and 16mm plus height. However, pretty damn cool.
Came across this online and interested what people think. I like the look of it but am not that keen on the top gun logo but it's on the back so could live with it.
Never heard of ceratanium but it seems like a decent compromise between ceramic and metal. Anyone got one or seen one in the flesh.

Didn't someone on here recently drop one, resulting in cracked lugs and a hefty replacement cost? It might have been the a standard ceramic though?
Was the standard ceramic. I'm guessing less likely to be so bad with this hybrid. https://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.p...hlight=ceramicOriginally Posted by Onelasttime
At £12k, imagine the bath you'll take on resale! Almost double the price of the standard version too. Like you, not a fan of the logo. Ceratanium - sounds like it came from X-Men...
I absolutely love that, wonder if any discount could be squeezed
This, but it's a great looking watch.

Love it
A Roman bath!
Will see if I can get a discount, hard to judge resale value as there are none available
The resale won’t be as bad as the usual culprits as the ceratanium is not widely THAT available as production is not as high. Furthermore it’s actually a very good looking watch with an in-house caliber. Check C24 and u will see that Yes u will take a hit but not nearly as much as ur typical IWC or panerai.
Just tried one of these on and it’s awsome
Great looking watch, I personally wouldn’t buy it at anywhere near that price. You could by an IWC Yacht Club chrono from WFinder for half that price.
