Interesting. Is that the weight of the whole watch, or just the gold?

Thanks for the info.
I thought 116688 is the heaviest of all

jenniferjanef · 19 August 2011, 04:57 PM

116618 is 228g only and 218206 weight 270g with bracelet size to fit wrist size 7.25 inch.

rolexsweep · 19 August 2011, 05:51 PM

wow, i would think the YMII would weigh the most.

jenniferjanef · 19 August 2011, 05:59 PM

The heaviest watch I got (my husband's) is APROO 18KYG weight almost 300g.. The DSSD is almost 220g. My 116505 is less than 200g. 116718 (sold) was 225g if I remember correctly.

Its a bicep workout to check the time!

Look up what an Omega Flightmaster 18k weighs lol. Makes all of the above seem like nothing...

I have a 116528 and it is just under 200g. The white gold ones are just over 200g.

As for the DD weight mentioned above, not even the (non-platinum) DDIIs weigh 260g.

The gold Submariners do not weigh 296g.

As for the YMII, the weight above might be correct.

arabesque · 20 August 2011, 04:35 AM

I weighed a couple of 18238 = 134.1 grams total... everything including glass, movements, crown, spring bars, scratches, dust and dirt.

118238s are heavier, I think 140 grams but I cannot recall rightly anymore.

Weighted them at my AD

padi56 · 29 August 2011, 12:46 AM

Well those weights seem to be slightly heavy as the DD 118206 Platinum was only 225g

Maybe you did, but my 116619 weighs 229g. Can´t imagine the YG-version being that much heavier.

Your AD needs to check his equipment ;)

The GMTc 18ct is a chunk of gold.

The Daytona was weighed with its "beater" buckle so there's a good 25g to be added for the full set.

Perhaps more than 300grs. My SS one weighs close to 230grs. And the gold one is considerably heavier. I would say at least 350grs. At the end of the day we are talking about a $80k Retail price watch.

Wildwing · 29 August 2011, 08:11 AM

Don't forget the impact of varying numbers of bracelet links as you compare total weights.

thank u sir :)

Throttle · 12 August 2013, 12:46 AM

No one has the answer for 16618?

How heavy is that with 11 links?

Anyone?

rangrov · 6 December 2013, 04:22 PM

Hi I have a 2005 day date later solid link bracelet in rose with 3 extra links the total weight of the watch is 191 grams, my gold yachtmaster 2 with full set of links is 266 grams the later sub is quite a bit less but as I do not own one I cant help, I know platinium size for size allways weighs heavier than 18ct gold. thanks.

Gingerbule · 3 April 2020, 05:02 AM

I am in the middle of a clear out and the person that was going to buy my 1992, 16618 claims that the 2016 equivilent has a higher gold content.

I have spent hours trying to find the answer on google and can not.

Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Maiden · 3 April 2020, 05:13 AM

Yes the 2016 116618 version has more gold due to the larger case size, bigger clasp and solid center links. Here is a pic of my 16618 at 184 grams. So you are looking at about 45 grams more in the new model.
