    Does the titanium version has the same plastic crown / plastic buttons or do we have that made from titanium? Plastic crown was a deal-breaker when I tried the original Race S and I went back to my Race titanium - for the more precise crown.

      @csandras pretty sure the crown and the buttons on the Stainless Steel Race S are, well Stainless Steel…

      Just tapped my tooth on mine and yep it’s definitely metal: it’s colder and makes a metallic noise compared to the plastic body portion.

      So i guess it’d be titanium for the titanium version

          @Egika would make sense 🙂 quite pleased with how much S.Steel/Ti is included in our Race S for the price! Meanwhile, the FR 265 is basically all plastic 😅

              @SvenSchroeter 😜 just like how geologists can tell the difference between clay and silt by tasting
