So Chip what made you get it 5 years ago? Well... been an Omega fan since I was a little boy. Five years ago I finally reached a point in my life where I could afford one. |

Good Answer  I dont know why but growing up I always liked Omegas too, much more than Rolex or any other brand kids know. SO as soon as I could afford one I splurged also ;D ;D |

It scratches, but not as easy as SS.
And the scratches on Ti actually look good! They have a totally different texture than the SS scratches.
And the electric blue dial is a less in your face than it is on the SS.

It really does look great, Titianium doesnt show hardly any wear.
Have you ever polished it Chip?
