A real beauty Peter. š„°
I canāt tell you how much I miss the Royal Oak design. And I donāt know what to do about it.
Usually I do prefer the heft of platinum and gold, but really surprised how Titanium grade 5 can be worked so well and contrast brushed and mirror polished surfaces. On this 44mm Minerva split, just a perfect match.
Indeed!
Beautiful Chopard and double dog photo Love the lightness and the relative coolness of the material. Peter
This reference is outstanding.
AP nailed it. Thank you for posting this rare nugget, Peter!
Thanks MichaelC!
A little bit of my own titanium Terminator watch - with a tourbillon mouth - at first I though the grey on grey on grey was going to be boring to look at but I find I'm spending more time on the contrast and details of materials, of surfaces, and of cours...
I think the somewhat monotone effect is what draws me here
And grey is always my favorite color. Great choice on this one my Friend!
Mmm Panerai!
I had a chance to own a PAM57C and it was my first titanium watch. Loved the contrast of size and weight Cheers Peter
Thank you for the comment!
I appreciate the note - it's one of my favorites for sure. Peter
Thank you sir!
Means a lot to me! For me the little detail of the tourbillon cage keeps it understated yet exotic. Cheers Peter
What a presence, the beauty of Titanium in full display!š As I wait for my first Titanium Patek (š), I can only live vicariouslyā¦. Cheers.
At a Bulgari boutique At a Rolex boutique ...
Mmmm...
If I had extra funds (or less AP) Bulgari is one brand I've been considering, especially their extraordinarily thin novelties and complications. Thanks for sharing that beauty!!! Separately - Rolex - hoping you or others can share the first Rolex Titanium...
Bulgari has indeed done an amazing job with the OF, a line that is worth considering by any good collector! ;-) This T model I was trying on is quite gorgeous, while if I really had to choose, my favorites are the 'sketch' LEs for the 10th Anniversary.
I found it interesting that Rolex decided to start producing in Titanium, though perhaps not entirely surprising given its level of attention to the quality of materials....the DSC was the perfect "excuse" in my view (it would have simply been impossible ...
Boom...
That piece is AWESOME! Thankfully in titanium - as I bet the SS version can be close to the equivalent of one diver's belt weight... Peter
And one incredible model!
That JLC is of the early pioneers...thanks for sharing. Peter

Wow. Blue and Titanium...
Beautiful MB/Minerva timepiece - I would personally be confused whether to wear it with the incredible blue dial on top or flipped to see the Minerva movement. In any case, I think the titanium elevates it another level - and given the case size I'm sure ...
Yes youāre absolutely right.
At the time I was a bit disappointed for it to be in titanium and would have preferred steel. Haha. Thank God. I was not aware that titanium could be worked that well. I have another titanium beauty on order but it will not be available until end of 2024....
Haha yes. End of 2024.
Patience has become a big part of my watch collecting lately. Not too bad really; I kind of appreciate the wait and anticipation.
One of the best uses of Titanium in watchmaking...
Maximal transmission - such an incredible MR Wonder why MR are sometimes in precious metals, especially if they may limit the quality and volume of the complication? Is is simply for luxury? Peter
Mon ami, c'est incroyable!
Superb! Continue to always wear it in the best of health ! Stephen
Thanks! A fun one...
I wish I could record the ticking sound - as shared previously, there's a satisfying tick when placed near my ear. Cheers Peter
Thank you! Comparing this with the other Ti model...
I love how modern it looks! Peter ...
Titanium Sunday...Let's not exclude Blancpain from the Ti family with a special Ti23 alloy
And hopefully, one day, a Yacht-Master 42 RLX Ti will join the family ...
Beautiful Blancpain you have there!!!
And I look forward to seeing you and a RLX - please share when you receive it!! Cheers Peter
AP, Gray Dial, Tourbillon and Titanium - superb combination.
Beautiful piece, very elegant and sophisticated. I find lightness of titanium and ceramic are practical alternatives to steel and gold. Congratulations. ...
Sick RM011!
What an incredible piece - always loved the design of RM from the early days of a "Racing machine on the wrist" - the RM011 in sporty and elevated materials such as Titanium, Ceramic, and other novel metals is definitely in line with its ethos. Awesome wa...
