116508 vs. 126508 YG Daytona weight

Anyone know if the new 126508 YG Daytona is heavier than the previous model or have the weights to compare?

I know the new model has the thicker lugs and crown guards, but curious if the weights are similar. Would love for someone to post it up if they can.

Thanks!

Very curious to know, too. My 116508 is about 207-208 grams fully linked.

I guess it’s the clasp, slightly wider bracelet, and beefier case.

My 116618 was very noticeably heavier than my 116508. As is, my 126719. PM Daytonas are lighter than PM Subs and GMTs..except the Platona of course.
