I believe there was two editions

One in gold with hammer visible and on/off switch in a little window and the second titanium one with much larger opening on the dial to make more of the mechanism visible. I seriously considered one until I realized that it only chimes once on each passing hour. So the chime only indicates that now is the top of the hour, but won't tell you what hour it is.

Did the Strike One hour repeater come in titanium?

Recently, I've seen an advertisement for one. The Strike One was launched a decade ago. I wasn't aware that it came in titanium. Anyone remember what that was about? Thanks Jim
Yes indeed it was

Very good looking piece I must add. Just not sure about the practicality of the complication... other than it being a complicated one...
Good point

An alarm watch would probably be more practical. The hour repeater would just be a nice background chime. Jim
Could be!

I have a Tudor Heritage Advisor alarm. It's in titanium, and it's quite loud. I wander how precious metals compare to other metals? jim

Thanks. I didn't realize that it chimed only once. Then, it's not as useful as a sonnerie. Jim
