    Grade 1 is considered Commercially Pure - it is the softest titanium. It goes from grades 1-9 (Grade 11 is available but not typically used commercially) the higher you go the stronger but more brittle. So for a watch or something similar grade 3-5 is ideal as it is light and stronger than steel (typically) but not so dense or brittle that it could crack if hit or sustains a hard blow from something. Grade 5 is the MOST commercially available grade of titanium has the best combination of toughness and strength to weight ratio.

      What a pity this watch is made in Grade 1 Titanium! Otherwise a really interesting watch because is the only Tuna/Tuna Hommage in this material and moreover this is a 44mm case, a "Baby Tuna". But the material for me is a deal breaker.

      ​@@heisenberg470Heimdallr specifies the titanium to be grade 3 on their site but this something very hard to verify of course.

    Thanks for the review. The grey/orange version looks stunning, and IMO it matches with the titanium case really well.

    A great video as always. Heimdallr are a great company. Fantastic dial on my red Monster and incredibly good lume. My only issue is the titanium. It is very light and looks good but I wouldn't bring it diving. I have 2 titanium Seiko divers and even with the diashield hardened coating on them, both are scratched to bits on sand particles, pebbles and coral and they look very bad though I still use them diving only. If you get one, don't dive with it, keep it away from rough surfaces, treat it well. Scratches look awful on titanium compared to what you might get on brushed stainless steel. I would definitely buy the grey one if it's released with stainless steel! It's a beauty.

    • @TheWatcherReviews
      @TheWatcherReviews  2 года назад +1

      Yeh i agree with that. Titanium scratches are different and as its softer it will scratch easier specially when using it like a tool watch. Thank you for watching!

    Great video as always - may I also mention that I just took possession of a PT5000 Steeldive Willard, and not only does it have a hi beat movement, but also a far less blue tinted sapphire crystal. You can only see the blue tint at the perimeter of the crystal, and even there it is subtle. I hope you might do a comparison video with the NH35 -

  • @JM800

    I just got one also. My only complaint are the sharp edges right above where the band rests. Like the AR coating, but I wish the dial was less textured.

  • @3rdstone1
    @3rdstone1 2 года назад +2

    Great review as usual. These looks really great, especially with that nice texture. Heimdallr makes great watches and rarely seem to have any qc issues. I just realised this would be a great 50th birthday presentfor my brother in late February. He has like gorilla wrists (as opposite to me lol), and prefer titanium since hes allergic to certain metals. Hence this size and material would be perfect.

  • @PpaStrmpf

    The material makes the sound the retaining wire is what does make the bezel stiff. Or it is a bone dry O ring underneath bezel if it has one instead of polygonal retaining/tension wire. A bit of silicone spray in the gap would help if it has O ring. Mine titanium watch has also that light-shallow sound but I do not care about sound but functionality and alignment. Nice looking watches. Wish they only made flush case back it would make watch a bit thinner.

    I keep coming here for several time. great and comprehensive video.
    Was planning to get the black San Martin Tuna. but seeing the grey orange, I'm sold. Hope that there will be a good discounts during CNY. I missed the black friday sale.
    I might replace the band with either grey or black leather straps.
    Cheers from Indonesia!

  • @kentlewis988
    @kentlewis988 2 года назад +2

    From the video it appears as though the dial is textured plastic(?) in appearance, with the shark logo and text simply molded into the dial and then simply painted black....is that what it looks like in person?
    Great job with the review!

Could anybody tell me if the handset on these tunas are the same size or are they bigger than the Willard thanks sorry have terrible eyesight and I pretty much have to put my glasses on for the SD.

    I thought those would be smaller, the Seiko street series tunas are 43mm at the base of the shroud and 41mm at the top. At 47 and 44mm, this version is a full size tuna. This is my main issue with homage watches, they still dont have much options at smaller sizes

  • @taonflorian2
