The difference between Ti and plasma definitely seems more pronounced in the Juliets than the Romeos, but you might be able to notice that the bottom pair in dragonvoi's photo is shinier than the middle pair?

The bottom two are very different in person I see the original TI bone finish like X metal but more of a tan color. The plasma is a milky flat finish. The TI and more porous looking finishes tend to discolor overtime with black markings specially if you don't clean them it's mostly sweat and oils that cause it.Last edited by a moderator:

Yet (to me at least) Ti on Penny looks like 2nd gen+ plasma on Juliet...Ddragonvoi

@dragonvoi Those are better picture for me. Now I can see the difference. Thanks.
Must have been the lighting, flash, my monitor, and/or my eyes.

very very nice!
Yes, the finishes don't always seem to equate across different metals.
I posted some comparisons between 1st and 4th gens of plasma a while back:
4th and 5th are more or less indistinguishable, 2nd and 3rd a slow transition from the sort of powder finish of 1 to the stainless steel of 4.Similar threads
