it's cool that you can make a comparison video for people not sure. I preordered the titanium day one, but ended up returning it and got the stainless steel black SERIES 5 with black leather loop. I love my stainless steel black. I had stainless steel black in SERIES 2 before I upgraded so I just couldn't get used to the look of the titanium watch. Definitely don't regret my decision, especially since all my other bands fit the stainless steel so much better because of the SERIES 2.

Thanks for watching Elisabeth. I need to make some more Apple Watch Videos. There is tons of content on the aluminum, very little on the Titanium. Ultimately I returned the Titanium and kept the Stainless Steel Space Black. The color changes in the lighting and the fact that it didn't match the Stainless Steel band were the main reasons. I personally prefer Steel for the weight. All of the Apple Watches use ceramic backs now. Earlier versions of Aluminum used the mineral on the back, and the scratching eventually affected the accuracy of the sensors.
