I am liking the gray dial! Can anyone offer some insight on brushed vs blasted? Being Ti these are going to show some scars as my Pam 25 has over the years so what finish would you think would show the least wear and tear? I am really worried about the smooth/clean bezel showing scars.

Devin much like brushed SS the brushed Ti will be easier to care for in the long run vs blasted and both SS and Ti can be refinished to like new condition if necessary ...all of my Ti watches are blasted so I look forward to the brushed being offered on the Ti47...

Ok, made up my mind... I'm down for "C", 3 hand Grey dial w/bezel markings, email sent to Steve to put me on the list. I'm always a sucker for the grey dial watches!

I'm not sure if the bezel will be removable. I will check with Ralf.

Blasted titanium appears darker than blasted steel. We offer brushed or blasted on this titanium model. I need to make that note on the webpage.

I am really worried about the smooth/clean bezel showing scars. Trent...I agree with Oscar's comment above about the Brushed being much easier to care for in the long run as far as scratches go. I'm going Brushed, but I'm tempted to order a Blasted too!!! ....must resist...must resist... ...and as Steve is pointing out the Blasted Ti is going to be much darker in color than a Blasted ss finish typically is. Steve, and I had been trading some emails when I placed the order for mine, and he brought up an interesting point about the dark Blasted Ti and smooth bezel sort of being similar (in theme at least...because I think the Benarus pieces all stand on their own very well...inspired, but not a homage to a specific model) to what one sees in some of the various Ennebi Fondale pieces out there. Got me thinking along those lines anyway...

Most may not care about the caseback, but I hope it going to be a nice as the front. I would like to see a caseback that fit the size of the watch, and not a small case back that's size of the movement used. A small acaseback just doesn't look good to me, fill it out to the size of the 47mm case. Just my 2 cents Alan

I don't have any picture, of a watch with a small caseback. I've only seen a picture of one and it looked odd. I have two benarus now,moray1 and a meg1. Both are great, and couldn't be happier. I'm just like everyone else who ordered moray 47Ti, can't wait to hand it in my hands. Alan

I don't think we have to worry about the caseback, the watch is 18mm thick (on the 3 Hand) and I'm sure a good chunk of that is the caseback to be able to handle the 2000M WR.

Somehow I don't think most ppl will be paying attention to the caseback when wearing the watch ;)
