Can you still order S6 titanium ? Says DEL not available?

Some stores do have stock. How bad do you want one? The Chicago store has at least one for pickup today.
What I don't understand, aside from the insane price, what the difference is between 'Graphite' and 'Space Black' is, and why the later is only available handcuffed to an insanely expensive band.
Well, my wife flew to Miami just to get 'points'. Yeah, I get it, but for 'points'? At least a short trip to ORD is for a really awesome looking watch. *shrug*
But, good luck. If I was heading to ORD, I'd offer to help.
It seems odd... Is it a silent cancellation, or a poorly planned product availability issue. We may never know.
Calling APPLE now.. Maybe my local stores have one.. I did find a couple all handcuffed to the Leather Loop and Leather Link Bands! Something going on for sure with the natural titanium ..
I also noticed when you go to Apple and click on Watch up top.. there is no spot for Apple Watch Edition anymore as well.
I bought one in natural Ti at the end of June and had no idea they would be out of stock. I wanted to go from a Space Black aluminum to something different, but didn’t want the polished SS. So, the Ti was the best option for me.
Good luck in your search! Since you’re in NY, you might find one. When I was ready to buy, they didn’t have them for sale at our Apple Store in TN, but they did have a display unit for me to try on.

Not Apple direct, but find stores that have them and call them directly. Apple would likely say 'there aren't any', and yet a few stores seem to have them still...
I noticed this as well since I was mulling over purchasing a 40mm SBTi from my SBSS S5 and noticed that the Ti models weren't available for delivery. Luckily my local Apple Store has a SBTi in-stock, but I'm still contemplating on if I should upgrade.
Looks like Apple is quietly phasing them out?

Many people believe there won‘t be a Titanium S7, though …
Gutted. The “silver” Titanium model was supposed to be my wedding present from my wife-to-be. Partly (but not entirely) because it perfectly matches the finish on my (palladium) wedding ring.
Didn’t even cross my mind that it wouldn’t be available until we just now went to place the order.
Sigh.

Update on the above: Found a *flawless* second hand one. Not a single blemish, and saved enough to buy the Nomad Titanium strap to pair with it.
Result.

All of them, except one, is coming up 'Unavailable'. One is marked 'Sold Out'.
Has Apple officially dropped it yet?

I noticed that myself - my guess is they either had manufacturing issues and are just not bothering making more with Series 7 on the horizon, or they sold poorly and this is a phase out.
Interesting that the titanium model is still listed on the Apple website even though they continue to be unavailable. Almost suggests to me that it is simply a temporary supply chain problem and they could become available again at some point. If they were discontinuing it entirely then I'd expect them to remove it from the website entirely.
The titanium model is probably their slowest seller. I know when I purchased my S6 and looked at the different choices, I thought that the SS model was considerably more attractive than either the aluminum or titanium, just my personal preference.

That’s the thing about the watches, SO much is down to personal preference/style.
I tried the silver stainless steel (I wanted a change having had a black SS Series 0 for years) and found it wayyy too bling for me, while the silver aluminium I just generally wasn’t keen on.
The titanium fits the spot perfectly for me.
