Frequently asked questions

Is the Vortic Canton nickel-free?

No. The caseback is steel, and steel carries nickel, so the guide does not list it as nickel-free.

What grade of titanium is the Vortic Canton?

Titanium, with no grade stated. The caseback is steel, not titanium. The record is at medium confidence, so check the maker's page before relying on it.
