Weight of Rolex: Is there a significant diff between styles.

[Bagaday]

Rolex Wearers: I am in the market for a Rolex. Love them all really. Probably will lean towards a sportier look (since I rarely dress up and have the Tank F. for that). However, I do not like a really heavy feel on my wrist. I love the size and look of a midsize and have the impression that a jubilee bracelet is lighter than the oyster. Other than that though, I do not know enough about these watches to determine what would work for me. Any comments/insights/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

I'd go to a dealer and have a fun try-on session! Why not! I know the stainless is lighter than the gold. . .(and easier on the wallet--haha!!) Even if you're going to buy pre-owned I think it's a good idea to try some on to see how they look and feel before buying.

I agree with greygirl that it's best to go & try them out at the dealer. I own a midsize with jubilee bracelet & I don't think it's too heavy. I tried on a 36 mm & I find that it's too heavy for me.

^^Thanks greygirl and HappyAngel.....yeah, I know I need to try on but I need to do that when I'm in a 'real' city - I live in an area where Kohl's is considered uptown shopping. However will be heading to Las Vegas on the 31st so I can do an up close and personal inspection.
