Race S titanium crown material

Does the titanium version has the same plastic crown / plastic buttons or do we have that made from titanium? Plastic crown was a deal-breaker when I tried the original Race S and I went back to my Race titanium - for the more precise crown.

@csandras pretty sure the crown and the buttons on the Stainless Steel Race S are, well Stainless Steel…

Just tapped my tooth on mine and yep it’s definitely metal: it’s colder and makes a metallic noise compared to the plastic body portion.

So i guess it’d be titanium for the titanium version

@csandras received my titanium a few days ago.
Crown and buttons as well as the base plate are titanium
