    I have never purchased a ceramic watch, i have always felt comfortable with stainless steel, and never been interested in gold. What is the advantage of the ceramic and titanium materials that they are using in the new models? Is the ceramic more scratch resistant? I love the new pieces, but am hesistant about the materials used.

    My 2006 article "Hail Zirconia" will tell you a bit about the material. You can get much more info by searching the archives here (upper right magnifying glass) or a simple Google search.
