Nope, polished titanium CG, you can really tell the difference in weight between the SS and ti CGs when they've been removed.

ST4, I'll see about taking a group shot, as I've just finished piecing together a 082 and 091 (just need to put the crystal on)

I don't know my metals your right I'm wrong my wife is right I'm never right! LOL

the 172 has a polished ss crown guard.

OxiClean (OxyClean?) is used to give Titanium a darker finish, supposedly making it look more like the metal Tantalum (a.k.a. Tantalium). The process has been done a few times by various members, just do a search for both spellings of the "Oxy" product, and you will find the threads in question.

thanks for the advice

Someone said the watch was to light in color to the gen so they washed it with oxy clean to darkin it up? Mith or real where is mith busters when you need them.
