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...

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 me |

The OP was looking for the heaviest and thickest diver, the 12K is still heavier, the 20K is thicker, but IMO probably too thick. |

Lets wait that the Megalodon surface from the abyssyourock.gif |

I was fitting the Buran Manta Ray today at the store. It is BIG, heavy and serious-lookin'. But it can't come close to the Charmex. I learned something new from 3T again today. I think the Charmex can also be used as a chopping board when fishing, huh William? I wouldn't mind having one of those brutes. |

Thrue! Ideal when you chop the head of a 500lbs halibut  I prepared my reel and rod for this weekend: But I will go with my revisited Tissot...Let's hope that the sapphire hold under the knife! |

I've gotten snobbish about the weight. My Sea Devil has spoiled me towards other smaller watches. I love the heft. |

The biggest heaviest watch I own is my new Invicta Reserve Specialty Subaqua. This guy has a 52mm X 20mm case and with all it's links weighs in at right about a pound. Being a Subaqua it is water resistant to 500m. (1650 ft.). I know some of you guys aren't Invicta fans but, this is quite some watch.  I have a pic posted in today's wrist check as well as in the new arrivals. |

Sissies! This Nixon is 51mm ... not sure about the weight, but I can assure you ... mine feels like a boat anchor. I take a lb less dive weight when wearing this baby ... :P http://www.nixonnow.com/watches/mens/the-51-30-A057_001.html |
