titanium vs stainless

[dcruse]

Considering purchasing the Observer. Any opinions on titanium vs stainless? T is lighter weight. What about color and overall look? Is T worth the extra cash?

Thanks!

The Observer is 1/3 smaller in both diameter and width than the first generation Suunto Watches (Vector, Altimax, etc). It also features a chronograph, which previously was only offered in the Navitech but is now discontinued.

The stainless steel is a shinier metal than the more subdued titanium; the difference makes the titanium model look classier to me. But it's pretty subjective.

I have used titanium in other applications and it wears very well. that is it looks the same after years of use and micro scratches and such don't affect the look of the metal. I have a Ti Observer that is two years old (with hard use) that looks brand new. Stainless steel wears a bit more. IMO Ti is worth it.
