![]() Titanium being as durable as it is makes it pretty appealing for a sports watch,” says Max Traber, a watch specialist at Bonhams. Because it’s so light, titanium should be a natural fit for a watch like the Yacht-Master, which is intended to be used for sports. It’s the second-ever all-titanium watch from the brand, after last fall’s debut of the Deepsea Challenge. Rolex’s $14,050 Yacht-Master was particularly notable. Titanium sports watches appeared among the offerings at haute horology’s most important trade show of the year, from Rolex, Oris, Grand Seiko, Chopard, Ulysse Nardin, Hublot, Zenith and other brands.
