I weighed my watches today. So here are the numbers.

Including all links..

114060: 158 gr
116610LV: 159 gr
126710 BLNR jubilee: 144 gr
126710 BLRO jubilee: 141 gr
DD40 RG: 205 gr

I was expecting bigger difference between the two Subs given the date complication and cyclop.
And similar to an earlier post, the BLNR is heavier than the BLRO…

Does the Factory pieces and 'HOMAGE' pieces have differing weights? might be a good way to distinguish a fake form the real thing.

Had a question on why information I have seen, says rolex 116201 weighs 145 gramms when in reality my 116201 weighs at 137.5 gramms at best. How accurate are the rolex ''weight'' tables and are they any reliable?

Not seen a CHNR yet, so popped mine (with removed links) on the scales (zeroed with microfibre cloth)



Popped the others on too for fun (again including all links)



And the 16600

It isn't that hard for a fake manufacturer to buy one and measure it themselves. Rolex makes around 1m watches a year, the fake manufacturers probably own (or have owned) the examples they fake for comparison purposes.

These scales recording to 1/100th a gram are writing some cheques their egos can’t cash.

Unless some TRF members are dealing. Which is a strong possibility I suppose

My Skydweller with one extra link weighs in at 244g.

Will measure my JC later but suspect it’s around 208g with the extra link

Icon5 ✨ The OFFICIAL ✨ How Much does Your Watch Weigh?

I've seen many posts where people have weighed their watches and have found it interesting to see the differences of various watches.

If you have a scale, weigh your watch and post the picture.


36mm SS

42mm titanium

Thanks for contributing to this thread.

I didn't realize weights are normally done in grams. I'll weigh my watches and repost them.

175.77 gr

OR 6.2 ounces

Sky-Dweller with TWO extra links.

A bit weighty.

I can handle it.

I love this thread. Don’t have the appropriate scale but keep them coming! I have a sub lv minus one link and blnr on jubilee. Let me know the weight. I know the sub is heavier.
