Don't no, but I once owned a Minolta XD-7 black (XD-11 in North
America), and I remember that it was mentioned a black chrome
proces developed in cooperation with Leica (the R4 was build on a
XD chasis or vice versa, like the R3 on a XE chassis, if I remember
correctly).
Anyway, it was very durable. But I have no experience with a OM-
4Ti Black (unfortunately ;-)
