Hi, I just bought my first Breitling, an abyss red Superocean 42. Despite the opinions of most people on this site, I did buy it from an online grey market dealer. Anyway, I am probably being overly obsessive, but I am concerned because when I weigh the watch I am getting 102 grams, which is 2 grams over Breitling's 99.7. I compared all visual aspects with another Superocean at an AD as well as the images of fakes on this site and everything (fonts, lume, logo) matches the real one. Is it normal to have a difference in weight like that? Thanks.

I highly doubt that there is an issue, but post pictures in the replica section if you want to be sure.

Thanks. So a 2 gram variation isn't unheard of?
