What watch brand using tungsten winding wheel?

Need all shifu and master helps here.

Any watch brand or special type or limited edition watches are using tungsten material in its winding wheel?

I just went to have a look, nothing new in the GS section except for the GMT with the blue tungsten rotor; SBGM031
The only other thing new is the Astron. Great technology but didn't like the looks at all.

The hands are way too short. Looks like some of the cheap Seiko quartz watches, nowhere close to the GS and Ananta finishing & design elements.
Hope the 2nd generation Astrons will improve on its looks dept. then I'll get one for travel convenience.
Prices of the 5 Astron variations vary from RM 8K-12K

Great! Discovered from MWF post, the GS GMT rotor is tungsten too!
