116660 vs 16600

I was told by someone that the 16600 is actually more "top heavy" and floppy on the wrist then the Deep Sea...???



Any one who has owned both please enlighten me...

Both 16600 and 116600 fit perfect for me but the 116660 is definitely more top heavy.

No, not more top heavy, but maybe more than the SD43.

Owned the 16600, own the 126600 and tried the 116660 a few times. The Deepsea is definitely more top heavy than the 16600. The 126600 is the most balanced, but the 16600 isn’t especially top heavy.

How floppy they are depends on how loose or snug they are worn
