Titanium DLC 617 , as far as i know, only ZF made them in titanium, with gen-like case colour/shade/end aspect.
Sadly, they came with the garbage P.3000 v4 clone.
Roughly 20 grams lighter than 127 and 217.

That's a nice looking rep! Nice weight savings over the stainless. Thanks. I really like that model!

Definitely Olavmol !
Taking more care of my watches more than 98% of the GEN owners, ready to pounce with a GEN serviced and regulated Unitas or ETA 649x whenever it's required
Couln't have aquired the 217 OOR without your help either, massive help there.
Now i need to find the best version of the ceramic 375 and i can take a few years break

Gen PAM375 is not made of ceramics but of composite.

Thank you KOT for the clarification.
Need to see if the information regarding wich factory made the closest-to-gen model now for the 375 and i can begin the search.

I think now only HWF with 6497 inside, steel case with PVD and very questionable overall quality can do this.
