Curious...does anyone know the weight of the Rose gold rubber clad vs the RG 44??
Hey everyone,
I'm sure this is a question I could answer by simply going to a jewelry store and weighing each (since I have both in my possession) but I was curious if anyone knew. They feel seem to feel about the same...almost as though the rubberclad is a tad heavier. I was interested to see if anyone knew. Thanks in advance! Best, Carlos |

Well I weighed the 44 and it came in at 224.5g of gold. I read somewhere that there are two references of the new 44 with the newer reference having slightly less gold. My ref# was the newer. Unfortunately I wasn't able to weigh the rubberclad before I sold it.

A friend of mine weighed his RGRC at 225.28g (incl. the strap & RG deployant buckle). I heard the older ref of RG 44mm Novelty is heavier

Heavy and heavier--very substantial pieces weight wise (something to take into consideration for all day wear).
But they are stunning. |

Older style 44 weighing in at 243g. I love the weight though, suits the presence of the watch

Interesting the 44mm (new ref) weights less than 42mm. If someone has a FC 44mm (or SS) can you weigh it? |

That's correct. My price is post minor decrease and weights slightly less...I still love it BUT I would have preferred the extra gold!!
