Every time I see pics like these it makes me wish I had waited to get a natural Ti instead of my silver stainless steel. Next one will be Natural Ti. I’m almost positive!
I can relate to that. Stainless steel AWs are beautiful, but I don't dare to wear them on a daily basis because they are so horribly scratch-prone. I find the Ti way more practical. It combines elegance and robustness. The perfect watch.

Not to go against what you’re saying at all! But my old series 4 stainless steel that I owned for a little over a year didn’t have a single scratch on it. I’m very meticulous about my belongings though. But that was my first and last silver SS. It was a great switch up for a little while having owned only Space Black SS since series 0. Even though I loved it I prefer less flashy, that’s why I’ve been with Space Black SS and now Graphite. I’ve owned SBTi as well and it just didn’t excite me but I love the natural Ti’s luster and color, it is definitely a top pick for me as well!

Midnight Sport Band on 45mm Graphite Stainless Steel S7

Can’t decide if I like this band color. Looks a little too bluish to me in some light but in others more gray which I prefer. I’ll give it a couple days…

I actually really like the Midnight SB. In my case I actually like the slight bluish tones to it and it pairs really great with Graphite

Yeah it’s weird because blue is easily my favorite color. It might be because I have several other blue hue bands and was expecting something closer to a more pure black. If I had to guess, I’ll keep it as I’ve said the whole “I’ll give it a couple days” thing about at least 10 bands I have in the collection

Oh, but I'm totally with you on this. I owned a silver stainless steel S5 for a year that hasn't got a single scratch either and which I now passed on to my sister. I still have my silver stainless steel S6 Hermes which I love. It's just that for a daily wear, I find the Titanium more practical, since it's lighter and sturdier than the SS and has the better sapphire glass too. Ti is for me peace of mind in my daily wear :)
