Grice & Young Gypsy D'Or - weight

[Duckett]

Could anyone give me the weight of one of these?

EDIT: I just spotted this post:

…… however, it's the weight of an early one that interests me, if they are different.

Thanks in advance

Mine is a narrow spooled model and it weighs 11oz. Not an early model though - it's one with the plastic "domed" centre like the one shown. I can't see the weight varying much from model to model though. Earlier ones will probably be slightly lighter due to the lower diameter line pins

Thanks for this Sean.

Just over 300 grams for the narrow spool, 330 for the wide spool and not much difference between the 1950s one and the 1970s one.
