Humm... I was under the impression that the "champagne" version did have
some kind of paint or surface coating (that is, it isn't bare Ti). I've
seen quite a few examples that at least look like they have a coating
that has worn off around the strap mount points. Or is that just a
clear varnish over the Ti?
