I find that my Milgause GV and my Tudor Fastrider are just too heavy. The Daytona sits just right on my wrist. I would like to get a new GMT, but I worry it will not be light enough. Part of it is my job, I do a typing and my wrist gets fatigue.

I would hate to get rid of my GV, but if the GMT is lighter I might go with it.

Can't go wrong with a Daytona

Daytona is very comfy indeed!

After the honeymoon was over the SS Daytona became a weekend/dress watch. When I don't wear it for a while I sometimes get the "too much $$ to have wrapped up in one watch" thought, or trade it for a DSSD mode, then I put it on and fall in love all over again.

If you want to choose a Rolex according to weight, here you go.

Nothing wrong with that at all.

Ristretto · 31 July 2012, 06:56 AM

My favourite watch of my collection, I wear it daily.

Wow, interesting that the GMT IIc is fractionally heavier than the Milgauss! I wonder why that is? Milgauss case definitely feels more dense than the GMT IIc case, and bracelets seem similar ....

Interesting that my DD Plat 36mm is heavier than the humongous Deep Sea 'cause when I tried on the Deep Sea it felt way too big and heavy for me ..

It's why I just sold my THC. Couldn't get it to sit right on my awkward wrist.
My lvc sits pretty good and the 1680 sits perfect with a NATO.

The Daytona is gorgeous nothing wrong with wearing the hell out of it. That's what they made rsc for!

I don't own one . . .
But I love to own one . .

To get the same feeling as you !

Have a nice Day tona ;-)

Yep. Daytona is perfection...
Get one before they make it 4mm thicker and 4 mm larger...

HL65 · 31 July 2012, 11:24 AM

Good one to go back to!

May I suggest taking the watch off while you type?
