This mostly applies to dive watches and sports watches, but if I can see a noticeable steel rehaut between the glass and the dial, it makes the watch look cheap.

Alignment QC issues aside, my Seiko divers with actual chapter rings look and feel a lot more thought out than some of my swiss divers without any markings or chapter rings. Heck, I had a cheapo Aliexpress Addiesdive watch that just had an unmarked but dial-color-matched black "chapter ring" covering the rehaut and even THAT looked better than nothing.

If a dive watch is going to ask for premium price, there's no reason to NOT have a properly placed chapter ring to cover that metal wall - unless they are intentionally homaging certain vintage models.

Please feel free to disagree.

I've hit almost 800 hours in Nightreign and this game taught me so much about base game Elden Ring mechanics, weapons, items, etc. that I had never even considered or thought about that I actually got excited to go back to Elden Ring again for another playthrough.

I've heard a lot of people talk about getting re-adjusted to having fall damages, crouching while trying to sprint, etc., but my biggest disappointment now is how lame my character looks and moves.

The customized drip and animations of the nightfarers are so good that even the armor sets I thought looked great in the base game now looks crappy in comparison. The default one-size-fits-all pose and animation just look blocky now. I'm just playing as John Person and it's bothering me more than I imagined.

So now I'm back playing Nightreign.

I've heard good things about titanium as a matetial and am in the market for titanium quartz divers. WD NTTD seafarers is looking like a strong candidate.

I know without some kind of coating titanium does show scratches easier, and Im fine with that.

The only issue Im worried about is crown and caseback threading. There was a titanium seamaster homage a few years back (I think it was heimdallr) that had pretty bad issue of crown thread stripping with normal use because they didn't think it through and didn't use stainless steel tube for threading (i think that was the explanation).

Similar issue with another Chinese brand titanium watch that I forget the name of, but with caseback - stripped upon trying to re-close after battery change.

Are these known issues with watchdives Ti models as well?
