This is my GMT meteorite. I don't have a digital scale here but mine weighs about 220gr. I took out 2 links.

The watch was picked up from an AD overseas and I am currently in contact with them. Likely I will have to send it to RSC

I am going to keep everyone updated! Hopefully it is not bad news bear... :(

I just weighed the watch as well for one of the questions above

Any update on what the deal is with your watch? Very curious to know.

Cannon Pinion
The cannon pinion is the heart of the motion works. This piece is what translates the movement of the wheels on the back into the time keeping display on the front. Most commonly (there are several exceptions) this is attached to the center wheel via friction fit and it is the post that the minute hand is set on.

It's the hand bush which is actually riveted to the hand, pressed onto the seconds hand, not the cannon pinion. The cannon pinion holds the minute hand and is completely invisible in this picture.

Dial print is clearly crap

Following...

How does an AD in another country sell a highly collectible Rolex to a customer from another country? Then does not remove the stickers. And now all these issues....

Hhmmm......

Let me guess: You bought the watch from a Rolex "retailer" in Hong Kong.
