I want something I can forget is even on my wrist from time to time. I think titanium looks better than steel with its darker finish. Grand Seiko titanium looks a bit too much like steel to me.

Agree. However, I had titanium watches before and I eventually sold them all because the darker finish became boring to me after o few months of use. Let's see if the Pelagos survives...

Brushed Titanium is my favorite case material! Understated; some might say dull LOL. Panerai 368, 338, iwc 3536-01

What your favorite titanium watches?
I love IWC (had a Timezoner chronograph and 3706), but their use of movements too small for some models is kinda lame.

That said, a ti watch from them, Omega, or Panerai would be a good way to go.

Buy the Tudor Pelagos and the Grand Seiko Snowflake.

You can probably get both for under 10k new, from an AD.
