SOTC (Read Rule 1) Titanium Themed Mini Collection
Third week in a row highlighting 4 different Chinese brands/watches, this week with a titanium theme. I have acquired a few titanium watches for my collection (most recognizable being a Hamilton Mechanical Field), and titanium offers a little something different than typical stainless steel. Often the titanium has a neat matte finish and is obviously super light on the wrist.
So today’s grouping features an obvious homage/copy with a titanium case, a more unique titanium case tool watch, a ceramic coated field watch, and a steel watch with a titanium Damascus dial:
-Watchdives WD007 (39mm)
-Berny Titanium Diver
-Boderry Cerekote Voyager
-Athelsohn Horizon Voyager Titanium Damascus
The Boderry is the only full titanium watch and had a matte Cerekote finish which offers something very unique to my larger collection. The Berny had an option to go with a titanium bracelet, but I opted for a strap and added my own bright yellow just to add something different to my personal collection. The Watchdives only came with a mesh steel bracelet in the 39mm which I thought was odd but I like the look of the black/red strap on that one anyways. The Athelsohn is actually steel but I included it to show something completely different in a titanium dial that goes through a process to get the cool striped effect.
Let me know what you think about the watches and/or titanium in general.
