can't seem to find many pics so maybe whomever owns one can post here?


I am really liking this new model and its a perfect size for my wrist but trying to
decide between dial colors and bezel types is awfully hard.

can those of you who purchased a Ti47 post a pic and your comments about the one you received?

thanks so much
-Steven

It is a lovely watch! The shape of the case is absolutely perfect/beautiful. I got the gray dial, and unmarked bezel. The dial is somewhat similar to gray mother of pearl, because you can see other colors in it, when you look closely. I will post pics later...

OK, maybe not actual colors...but the gray sunburst dial has a depth to it, that reflects hues, and makes it seem more alive, than the black dial.

that looks sharp!
really nice looking sun-ray dial  ThumbsUp02.gif

what made you go for the 'smooth' bezel?

i am wondering if the glossy black paint in the numbers on the other bezel
might be too shiny?

I have both smooth bezel, and numbered bezel Moray's. I like both. For this model, I just liked the naked look.

Well Steven...that is a hard question (which is why I ended up with two of these crap.gif).

I like them both...Thumbsup3.gif...The Ti47 is a spectacular design in it's own right and really does stand on it's own, but I will say that when I got into these, the inspiration for the brushed version was coming from a bit of grail space for me (Mike Horn's Panerai PAM 307 Depth Gauge believe it or not)...while the inspiration for the Blasted version was coming from another manufacturer that I like the design of too (Ennebi Fondale which IMO has some really cool blasted Ti cases in the 47mm size)...the smooth bezel came to mind when I was thinking about blasted Ti cases that I liked the looks of.

That's my two cents, and I don't know if that has helped at all.  Obviously everyone will have their own preferences and likes.

Good luck with your decision!!!

thanks Stew

the PAM305 is my 'grail' and why I am looking at the 47Ti.
:-)

I have already owned an Ennebi Fondale custom with smooth bezel.

I know where you are coming from.

What I think might look great is an engraved bezel but one that is not filled in with paint???

btw -  where did you get the PAM style strap or is it the real deal?  ;)

i appreciate the help and pics guys.

forgot to ask, is the case-back titanium or steel?

These ti Morays look great. I personally can't pull off 47mm, but if at some point there's a 44mm ti Moray I'll definitely be adding one to my Moray collection.

Hey, Steve.

Personally, I never liked this type of case but with these latest Morays coming out I have to say I am starting to change my mind.  I've always thought they were beautiful pieces but never thought about really wearing one until I saw the clean bezel version.  They are just a little too big for me.

I'm with jswing, if a slightly smaller version were to be made, I would definitely consider one.  You know me, Steve, I need around 42 mm to feel comfortable :)

I'm sure my comments do nothing to help you out with your decision :)

Good Luck.  You can't go wrong with a Benarus.

WoW!!! Thanks for the great pics! That thing is built like a Tank.

There are some "high end" watches that would be embarrassed to compare to that.

Great job Steve and Ralph. Just another example why the Benarus watches are such a great value.

Tanks again!
