How much do they weigh?

Is there a listing of the weight of current SS sport models; Sub, GMT, Exp II, Sea Dweller, etc? I assume this would include the standard band with all links. Just curious how my Exp II compares to other models.

My bracelets have several links removed though. Threw in other brands for good measure. Relatively speaking, I barely even feel a leather Speedmaster on my wrist.

Why? Are they too heavy for you to wear them? Would it have been a factor in your purchase decision? Just curious as not sure why anyone would give a rat's can about how much their SS watch weighs.

The fact that people sit around and weight their watches though...Too much time on their hands I guess.



PS If you want heavy buy a WG Sports model.

Sub is probably my lightest watch. Planet Ocean Chrono is the heaviest at 250g. You get used to whatever you wear.

I find weight interesting as an authenticity tell (genuine movement vs ETS).

these differences are very minor and become insignificant with wear

the difference between SS and PM is worth noting

You mean straps? Well, all straps of different material has different density hence I weigh them without the straps. For Panerai, I can say you can get ten thousand a s one strap and it won’t satisfy a true strap fanatic or a paneristi. Furthermore, some straps are longer or shorter and thicker or thinner.

I will summarize all these numbers shortly. Thanks. I have no scale. Would an Exp II 42mm be close to a Hulk?

Here's a weigh in of the 116519LN White Gold Daytona on Oysterflex.

This one weighs a lot more than you may expect based on the bracelet material...

Heavier than any other watch in my collection.

Should be super close.


Funny thing is I wore my Hulk to the AD the other day and tried on a WG Sub for the first time back to back. I didn't notice any difference in weight. I'm also the guy that has to touch my wrist to see if I'm even wearing a watch.

~160 to 230 on a SS to WG SubC.

Also, this is handy little reference thread.
