Is Titanium really stronger than steel?

Case Material Scratch test by Ben’s Watch Club.

Is Citizen Super titanium really 4x harder compared to 316L steel ?

I’m impressed with that PVD and Ceramic case material

What case Meterial do you prefer ?

Good video, well worth a watch.

Not a fan of Titanium, like a bit of heft.

I like Titanium watches.

As an engineer I don’t equate heft with quality. Precision, refinement and subtlety of line are more important measures to me.

Love it as a material, excellent on my bike. Just years of wearing steel watches has cemented mass on wrist with quality in my lizard brain 😢

I like the content but Ben’s face annoy the living shit outta me!!

Titanium is lighter but more prone to scratching which is why brands like SWC and DuFrane harden theirs

·

Fun video! But: I don't mind a scratch on my watch and was not going to buy a bioceramic anyway, so of no real practical added value 😎

What’s the winner? I can’t sit through these videos.—

The Braun Ceramic followed by Traska and Sinn Hardened steel, PVD and 316L steel also the Spaghetti Scameti did really well also lol

Scratches at lvl 6, deeper grooves at lvl 7.

The reason you choose Titanium is for its weight. If you prefer light watches (like me) it's a great option.
