does this really work? titanium? arent x-metals titanium? hehe?

X Metal is an alloy with like 9 components in it, not pure titanium. Food for thought..

haha all this time I was thinking that it was titanium made from different alloys lol!

What about the TimeTank? That is solid titanium if im not mistaken.

I believe that would work...

that's kind of funny i have always thought about getting one of those phiten things to try them out. This whole time i have a chunk of titanium on my wrist.

THE MOST COMMON ASTM/ASME DEFINED TITANIUM GRADES

Please refer to our frequently asked questions to learn more about Grade 3

where does X metal stand? thanks!
