I think I'm going to go to my jeweller with some cake ingredients and get them to measure them out for me.

Rookie - they're only certified for Glashutte school watches - you need the Swiss scale to meet AD standards for weighing Breitlings :nana:

Today's kitchen scales are amazingly accurate. I recall reading something in Cook's Illustrated or similar where they compared them to lab grade scales and they did quite well.

Ok, I was bored too, so I did this with my kitchen scale. All watches have one link removed, from lightest to heaviest:

  • Wife's Ladies DateJust - 53g
  • Chrono Avenger M1/Pro2 - 153g
  • Chrono Avenger Auto/Pro2 - 161g
  • Avenger Seawolf Ti/Pro2 - 163g
  • Navi World/Navi Bracelet - 192g
  • Steelfish 44mm/Pro2 - 232g
