I keep going back to my SS Daytona
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. David |

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.

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! |

May I suggest taking the watch off while you type?
