14060 vs 5513 weight

Hey guys I handled a 5513 today for the first time with a newer 93510 bracelet . The watch felt a lot lighter than my 14060 with the same bracelet . I almost want to say it was a fake . Is there a huge weight difference compared to the newer 14060?

The 93150 is an hollow Midlink bracelet. The 5513 uses a 93150/580 bracelet.

The 93250 that you will find in your 14060 is a solid Midlink and endlink bracelet.

So the difference of weight is perfectly normal.

Cheers

That is a quality answer!
I have owned both watches, the 5513 feels a tad slimmer on my wrist, the weight difference was negligible.

can you elaborate on the 93250 in your answer? I thought the 14060 used a 93150 bracelet all the way through to the end. In fact, I recently saw a very late model NOS 14060M full kit in the sales corner, on 93150/501B.

I know that a 93250 is part of the equation, just not sure where or how. Can you help?

Thanks!!

Totally wrong!
14060 use also a 91350 with Hollow Links.

93250 is used by a 16610 and has also hollow Links.
