Well it arrived today, and although not everyones cup of tea, I love it. I have included a few pictures. This watch seemed to have never been worn since purchased. I almost feel bad wearing it but I'm sure that feeling will pass. Tell me what you guys think?

Thanks for the complements! Much appreciated. I'm still trying to get over the fear of wearing it, especially around door frames!

It's titanium nitride coated with a rubber strap!! Let it fly!! I wear mine around the hospital and have knocked into a great number of things already (I am not easy on my beater watch(es)). It still looks perfect!!! That coating seems pretty darn tough!! :lingsrock:

It still can be damaged though. I bought a used blackbird blacksteel and it came with a couple of small nicks on the bezel where the steel behind it can be seen. Not sure what the original owner did to cause it as I've never put a single mark on it at all. But definitely enjoy the new watch, it looks great!!

Very true, but it is pretty hard to scuff up, I am discovering. WAY harder than an uncoated steel watch.
