Weights of Rolex Watches
Apologies is this has been covered before but I'm after a list of the weights of the Sports watches. I seem to remember a 1 pager from the far East with some weights on but is there a current source of that source of info'?
A Sticky thread in the Reference section would be great...

That's great... thanks fellas! I wonder whether there's a more up to date one floating about somewhere... The newer models all have solid link bracelets and I was curious as to how they compare. Interesting that the new Explorer is almost 30 grams heavier, obviously due to the increased case size as well as the bracelet. Also, I see that the newer Sub is 36 grams heavier than the older version. Well, that's interesting to me, at least. Thanks!

I presume the watch is lying on one of those lead aprons the dentist drops on my chest for x-rays? ;) |

I forgot to mention the weights I recorded where with watches sized for my 7.4 wrist. Your mileage may very, and may be a question of blood flow. People without scales should not measure watch weight. Inform you Doctor immediately if you can't lift your wrist above your head while wearing Rolex.

My golds at around 220 are pretty heavy but nicely manageable, can't imagine what 280 is like all day, would probably have to start seriously wrist working out, not like that.

This is all very interesting. Thanks so much... And amazing that the platties weigh so much more than the DSSD!
