Probably people should be talking about the reduced density of the material, which is really significant. A men's-size 18k gold watch is heavy... too heavy for many people who don't have enormous meat appendages.
- barrkel 12y agoIn something like a watch, if it looks like gold and has some bulk without corresponding heft, it feels fake. I have a fairly cheap mechanical watch combined with a Milanese mesh strap. I ordered a bunch of different mesh straps, looking for the right material and closeness of weave - it's hard to tell from online photos. The biggest difference between the one I chose and the ones I discarded was weight. The discarded ones felt like they were made of plastic.

- marincounty 12y agoTry on a 18k Omega Constellation watch. The gold warms up to skin temperature so quick it feels like a lambs skin band. As to weight--it's not heavy. Acually, I need to look down to make sure it's still there. As a Horologist, it's by far my favorite watch. It's a simple watch, but it just feels right. My only concern is thiefs notice it more than high end stainless/alloy watches.
