I definitely like both, but I'm surprised how huge of a difference about 75 grams makes on the wrist. It made me love my precious metal even more. Has anyone else experienced this?

Wishing everyone happy holidays!

Next post will probably say, show pic or it didn't happen. lol

Curious, where are you located?

If you thought going from a PM SubC to a steel SubC made the hulk feel like a toy, I can't imagine what you have thought about going to a pre ceramic!

I always need a small adjustment period when going from my SubC to my 16610.

Congrats mate, nice shots

Actually also have a perpetual datejust from a few decades ago. I give that watch a "pass." And like others have said, there is something to be said about comfort of a lighter weight watch.

Oh absolutely, and I agree, they feel like different watches. That's how I justify owning both anyways.

sdh1980 · 19 December 2018, 04:03 AM

They do feel very light compared to the PM version but I find mine far more comfortable that the all gold version

70 grams is a big difference. That’s like 3 ounces of cocaine

. Have you ever held three a bag with 3 oz of blow

.

In all seriousness the two watches feel super different
