Platona vs Pounder/Brick in weight

Which watch do you think is heavier? I think the pounder is more top heavy with the bracelet not being as heavy as platona because the bracelet is thinner and made of gold instead of platinum. The platona has a heavier bracelet due to the thicker links in bracelet and because platinum is used and also is not as top heavy as the pounder. You feel the bracelet more when you were the platona, where as when it comes to the pounder you feel the weight of the case and bezel the most not the bracelet. If we are talking about the pounder in platinum than it's a different story. The platinum pounder would obviously weigh more than the platona. Anyone have the weight in grams for all 3 watches: platona, gold pounder, platinum pounder?

Yeah I thought the Gold Brick was around 50g more than the Platona.

I wear a platinum day date 40 and the thought of a watch that weighs 439 g is insane. God help us all!
