Just to add information for future reference, Citizen makes several Eco-Drive watches in titanium. My personal favorite is out of production but still shows up for sale new online.

For high end watches, Rado and Junghans make some ceramic watches that are even more hypo-allergenic than titanium.

BF_HammerThanks, BF_Hammer. It looks as though the watchband your picture would give me a rash, but I'm guessing that the companies you recommended -- Citizen, Rado and Junghans -- make watches with titanium or ceramic bands.
Also, some bands are considered to be hypoallergenic (vegetable leather, etc.), but I've noticed they bother me anyway. I've yet to wear gold that didn't make my skin itch -- even the kind that supposedly was most pure.
I do like the lightness of titanium, though, and heaviness does seem to exacerbate skin contact.

BF_HammerI have an addiction for the Citizen chronos, i own 5 of them. This watch looks awesome but what's grabbing my attention is that beautiful leather band. Thanks for sharing this. (if you can provide a link to buy this band i will be very thankful.)

FJR-DubenIt was purchased from an ebay store, NATO-International. Actually he is a good resource to save and I have purchased other straps him. http://www.ebay.com/itm/22mm-Brown-Distressed-Aged-Calf-Military-Bomber-Pilot-watch-band-strap-IW-SUISSE-/182270395348?hash=item2a702983d4
What I will comment on about the strap is that it is a faux distressed finish. It is just as stiff as any other brand new padded leather strap, and actually has a glossy sheen to it. Not quite what you might imagine looking at pictures online. I originally bought it for my Hamilton Team Earth, but was disappointed with the combination after trying it. I like it much better on the Citizen.
