Some people have reported their 116718 (all gold gmt 2c) to weigh a whopping 230 grams, we have a fellow with the white gold sub in around the sane at a huge 224, these are monsters.....but in my opinion since platinum is a more dense metal I do believe that the new day date 2 in platinum would be the heaviest current production model and probably one of the heaviest rolex production models ever to be produced.

That's not a watch, that's a case that was built to put the watch into....I don't know if that counts lol.

My guess would be the YG Yacht Master II, as a few others have said its huge and that much gold ain't light

I've had the pleasure of trying on a Plat DDII, and boy, is it heavy! You'd get one extra muscly arm carrying that thing around all day
