Hi Chanelle:
The jumbo definitely has a much longer chain, which you can wear across your body. As to weight, it depends. The caviars are lighter than the patent leathers, for example. Also, the hardware used can make a difference. I don't know about the dimension-wise, but if my memory serves me correctly, jumbos are taller and more narrow and 227 reissues may be slightly wider and shoter. The nice thing about the jumbos, which I love is the long chain and no flap = less weight, less fussin'.

Hii ladies
i have the 227 reissue and going to buy the jumbo classic, but first would like to know: what are the major differences between them in terms of:
. dimensions
. length of the chain
. heavy
Just for reference, I am 5'1 and the Jumbo looks really bulky and long on me but somehow the 227 is perfectly fine... although both are 12 inches in length.
