B+W's brass rims when it's black coating wears off over time at the thread area, it's a nice golden colour whereas for aluminum, it's becomes silver.
Yes, it looks nicer and the darker tone makes it not that obvious as compared to a brighter shiny surface. It's personal prefs.
B+W's brass ring is one of their features they like to promote. B+W brass filters will not "bite" into the thread of your lens and get stuck. They are easier to remove by hand instead of filters with aluminium rings which tend to get stuck on yours lens and require some tool to unscrew it. This can be a problem in the field when you want to change your UV filter to a polariser.
they are the "cheaper" alum type as what has been described here. because OP takes in their stock from their parent company in China.
Managed to dig this out from deep in my subscriptions page... Snoweagle: you also posted in there what. :bsmilie: how come you still ask me. LOL.
