Weighing My Collection...Literally
Tonight I decided to pull out a few of my watches and throw them on the scale. The results were a little surprising. The titanium PAM 177 was obviously the lightest and my classic TT Sub 16613 was next lightest...with the hollow center links and smaller case, that was no surprise.
However, I was most interested to find out that my new DJII and my Sub LVC were almost identical in weight (1 gram difference). I find the Sub C to wear heavier and I think it can be attributed to the higher center of gravity on the wrist. Here are my results...

I'm wondering if the Sub.C LV and the GMTIIc weight the same.

How could you tell? We got 22" of snow last night so I needed a good indoor activity to keep me busy!
