 Tissot DS3(limited to 1888 pieces and 44mm without crown) : 225g with the steel brace. Over 120g alonehand6.gif



A Pam 44mm on steel brace goes right over 200g...No more
A Tissot Seastar 1000 on steel goes around 175g...
All fitted on a 7'' wrist.
I guess, very few models as the future Megalodon from Benarus and maybe some UTS models can beat the DS3 from Certina...
But the square Gevril 4500 sub is weighing 136g without the straps: So you may go over the DS3 weight with a thick steel brace adapted on it...

If your wrist is under 6.5'', it may look "too big for the guy"...But your taste is not universal.

You can still find the Certina from around 1000buks. Or go for the last diver of Revue Thommen who's big and less expensive...

 I checked Charmex: You guys will have to be updated as the 20000 feet arrived! With it's 46mm diameter and 28,5mm THICK!!! It's a tripple bacon&cheese on the wrist! 3000 Euros less in your pocket and a wrist 265g heavier. ONLY for big bad guys who hunt giant squids with a harpoon.....Like metoon1.gif
