New BLRO SS weight compared to GMT Master LN

Does the new BLRO SS weigh less than the GMT Master II LN due to the Jubilee bracelet - if so by how much? - question for the new BLRO owners that have or had both.

New BLRO SS weight compared to GMT Master LN

The BLRO weighs 142g with all links. It weights the same as the ceramic SS Daytona with all oyster links fit.

Weight is nearly identical. My 116710LN came in the same on the original Oyster. I haven't weighed it on the Super Jubilee yet but it doesn't feel any lighter, just more comfortable.

I can't tell the difference between my BLNR and BLRO just by holding them...

You are welcome, Brian !

And to be honest, even if I compare them both to my LVc, I can barely say there is a difference in weight as well !

When it's considerably dark and hard to tell by the bezel, the first thing I check to distinguish my LVc from my BLNR is checking the clasp !!

Mine has two links removed so it's the same ~142g as shown with the BLRO above.

Same same... but different.

No, only two out on mine. Maybe it was 145g rather than 142. It's been a while since I weighed it. Still, they all feel the same on the wrist.
