Has anyone seen the D9 titanium? It looks very hot!! Almost as hot as Scarlett Johansson in a hot tub.

Does anyone know when it's coming out?
 
That does look hot. I have the original D9. The Suunto web site only states "* Suunto D9 Titanium will be available in early 2007."

I can only image how much the titanium version must cost, does anyone know for certain.
 
No, but by comparison the steel stinger was AUD1300 and the titanium version was AUD2200. I would imagine the same or similar would apply to the D9.

Regardless of the price, that one good looking watch. Even if I weren't a diver I would consider buying it.
 
Why do you need a titanium? Do you have any disposal money?

D9's size can't replace your watch completely.
 
The current D9 is titanium, the new one has a titanium and stainless band. The D9 Titanium bracelet with transmitter retail is $1,925, without transmitter $1,499. The Titanium band will also be available as a part, March 2007 according to Aqualung. (Standard D9 with transmitter is $1,779, without $1,349).
 
Why do you buy any jewellery? I don't think it's out of need - it's just a want!

There are some very legitimate reasons for choosing titanium over stainless steel or plastic. Titanium is lighter than stainless steel, approximately as strong, hypoallergenic, and will never corrode. Plastic is a compelling alternative material for those people with sensitive skin or those who desire a lightweight watch/dive computer. However, plastic is simply not as robust as titanium. For those who can afford it, titanium can be an ideal solution to practical dive quandaries.
