Wondering if there were any quality watches with tungsten carbide cases. I love the finish of how tungsten looks and it's so hard, there would never be any worries about nicking up the case. Just wondering.

I bought a Croton tungsten watch a couple of years ago, and I can tell you it's a H E A V Y metal. Never wore it, and it's still in the cupboard.
