The only material property that matters on an Apple Watch is the surface hardness. None of us are going to put 9.81kN of force through these little devices. It’s only the occasional brush with an everyday object if we are careless. They could have released a brushed stainless edition and got the same look as the titanium to be fair. It’s all marketing at this level.
I didn’t know this, thanks. I personally feel it would make more sense for me to get the SSSB then.
Just received my Space Black Titanium this morning. I definitely love the new gray strap. Also really like the Edition exclusive color on the California Watch Face. The only thing I’m skeptical with and need to get used to is the color matching on the Space Black Link bracelet. The darker the environment, the easier it is to get used to, but driving around today in bright sunlight threw me off as it came across as so much lighter than the band. If I didn’t weR the Link 90% of the time, I’d be a lot less picky about it.
I do notice it is not as laggy as the Space Black Stainless steel S5 model.
I got it at 11am this morning, it had 73% battery. Battery died at 2:30am. Space Black would had been dead by midnight. I ended up returning the S5, the guy that took the return said they were getting a lot of similar feedback on the Stainless Steel models.
I made a video I will be editing, in the meantime I took some pics on the Link and some side by side with my Space Black S4 and some comparisons. Also took some shots on the grey band with California Display in Edition color. Photos don’t do that Exition color justice. Video should go live tomorrow. I’ll post the link.

Yeah there’s a big gap between delivery dates for the regular titanium and SB titanium. I’ll just stick it out and use my series 3 until then, hopefully it arrives sooner than estimated.
Depends what type of environment you're putting it through. If you're an OCD person, you should just wait it out for the SBTi or settle for the SBSS. Though my Natural Ti is holding up fine, though I'm just grooving around the office and doing weekly outdoor runs.
Yeah, I actually decided to just get the SBSS. I actually like how it looks more, I just wanted something different.
Has anyone gotten a) The 44 mm Titanium in Space Grey; and the Nomad titanium band? Just wondering if they sort of match.
