    Many titanium-cased watches have passed through my collection, but these two are keepers:




    Is this a true titanium EZM4 and not a made-up from a 157 ?
    Because only 25 Ti EZM4 were made for a special reseller in Japan.

    Yours looks a bit bright to be Ti.
    It should be marked "reintitan" on the case back.

    Thank you. Very nicely done.

    Have a steinhart ocean 500 in titanium which looks nice, but picks up marks easily. Presumably grade 2 based on price

    This is the only Titanium watch I own bought new by me in 2005, the Breitling Aerospace Avantage. Originally it was on the leather strap but I've since purchased the Titanium bracelet. It was my daily wearer for many years until superseded by a Rolex GMT Master II Pepsi 16710. In all that time of ownership I have never adjusted it for accuracy (except at battery changes) it has only been adjusted for GMT/BST; it still runs at 1 second fast.

    They are all made-up from 157s, but yes, this is an authentic 157.063. Do not let the photo quality mislead you.

    Very comfortable. Can easily forget you're wearing a watch.

    Apologies and well spotted Sir! I got them mixed up. Too many damn watches. I have both: Titanium OCW-S100 on left and Steel OCW-T200 on right:

    I can't imagine selling a watch. I once gave one away and have regretted it ever since. :)

    Money helps to dampen the regret
