I own a RG 005, and while I haven't weighed it, it is significantly lighter than a regular SS 44mm PAM. I'm guessing the weight is similar to that of a titanium PAM. Even though the case is substantial and made of gold...it doesn't have too much...

I'll Let you know how it turns out.

I should assume that a US warranty would also only be valid when provided by an authorized dealer.

Thanks Alex. I was informed that the European warranty would be honored in Europe. It's great to know I can go to VC NY.
