I kow, in fact I change bracelets quite often too. My point is that as far as I know, and please do correct me if I am wrong, there is no rep Ti bracelet available yet, meaning I would have to buy a gen Omega bracelet for about twice the price of the whole watch, and that is way more than I am willing to bury on a bracelet. Get me a rep Ti for under 200€ and I'm game :D

In fact, the main incentive for me to buy an OEM Omega bracelet would not even be for accuracy, it's because I suffer from the curse of small wrists and Omega's short bracelet seems very appealing. I hope (ultra very long shot) that if someone reps the Ti bracelet and sell it on it's own they think about making it on the three different sizes of the gen.

Actually there is Rep Titanium Bracelets available and they’re pretty phenomenal for only $158 on AliExpress. They do carry them in different sizes also, Titanium is not as exotic as people make it seem just a lot harder to work on, there is many Titanium Seiko and Invictas watches for under $200

I dont understand why people keep talking about a titanium bracelet when it will simply not happen, makes absolutely no sense price wise, also the gen bracelet has a lot of problems hence why omega had to update it and aestheticially vsf is better tham orf. Orf has a lot of dumb mistakes, only think orf is better than vsf is probably the case and that is has a somehow clone movement.

There’s a lot of Rep Titanium Bracelets for sale that look and feel fantastic. Like I I mentioned above, Titanium is not as exotic or expensive as people think, you have Titanium Invictas costing $174.

Ok well I guess Andrew from who’s a TD, an expert, owns Trusty Time, etc is wrong then lol.. ok buddy

I know you seem to have a hard time believing it but yes, he 100% is wrong... Plenty of evidence of that in this thread that covers when each one was released.

V1 -> V2 = SS to Ti case, too thick bezel markers to too thin bezel markers.
V3 -> V4 = Too thin bezel markers to a more accurate thickness bezel markers,

need some eagle eyes as it looks ok to me.

If it looks alright to you then maybe just leave it at that. I don’t understand the desire people have to go out of their way to learn to hate their reps. Nobody outside the 20 people on this thread will know the difference irl. I agree, that it does look good

Dealers are not experts on every little tweak on every model from every factory...particularly if the changes are “silent” upgrades - which the factory doesn’t always acknowledge. Hence in many cases, There is no precise definition of what v2, v3 and v4 constitutes. A lot of the time the factory definition does not align with what members here regard as being correct.

I don’t think andrew is necessary wrong and the members here are not wrong either in mentioning the witnessed changes across the months/years.

No this is 100% Titanium I spoke to the seller and he sent me those QC photos.

Have you received the bracelet yet and confirmed that it actually is titanium, or just going on the seller's word? From the shade of the color in the photos, it looks a lot like steel. And the posting says "titanium steel" throughout.

The only reason I ask is because this reminds me of the confusion when this model first came out, there were conflicting reports and understanding of what was steel and what was titanium.

I've already booked tickets at IMAX for the 30th. Here in Singapore you can seat in twos, but separated by two empty seats as you can see here in the seating chart. So you won't be separated with your partner. Grey are the seats that have been reserved. White are available seats. Red are restricted seats. The hall won't be as crowded as it would usually be if its a full house as there is a limit to the number of people in a cinema hall.

We are lucky in the UK, almost back to normal, I think if you are double jabbed, you have to try to get back to some sort of normality, I went to see Black Widow, and we are seeing Bond on Friday, but also not scared to travel on buses and trains, also back at the footy, I mean is there a better sight then watching The Arsenal smash the Spuds to Little Pieces :)

My younger brother bought this and it looks/feels great in person. Thanks for your insight though in the Titanium Steel confusion, I just read that this is a “misleading term” I guess the only way to find out is run some tests on it.

simply ask the seller the weight of the bracelet and compare it with what we have in steel, the titanium must be much lighter, my opinion is that they are steel all

titanium weighs 40% less than steel

Thanks for the enlightenment, much appreciated. I will compare my V4 to my brother’s V3.

Can you ask your bro to weight the bracelet with pic? I’d be keen to give this a go for my V2 if it is, in fact, titanium.

But here in Singapore, there is the delta variant lingering around. And even some of those who are double jabbed still got it. Actually more than 80% of the population has been vaccinated. But yet new cases increasing everyday due to the variant. And its only this week the government here have started to reduce the outings or gatherings from 5 to only 2 people in the hopes of reducing new cases. Dining in or movie watching in the cinemas are only for those who have been vaccinated. Unlike how it is in the UK and the US, mask wearing is still mandatory here even if you have been vaccinated.

And yes, Spurs isn't the team they used to be anymore.

Id be happy with the SS bracelet if they could just colour match it too the case

I've been perfectly fine with mine. The colour mismatch isn't as noticeable in person as it is in the pics. Can't wait to wear it when I go see the movie in 3 days time!
