The Datograph is a heavy watch...

especially in platinum, but not overly so for it to be uncomfortable on the wrist IMO.
I guess it depends on the type (weight/shape) of watches that you are used to wearing.
I have mine for more than 5 years now. It weighs 172 grams on the deployant buckle.
I don't even wear it tight as some have suggested, and I think having the strap of the right length such that the deployant buckle sits centrally on the underside of your wrist is key.
My straps measure 120 / 50 mm for my 6.5" wrist.
I also have/had the other watches that you are considering, and agree that they are easier to wear compared to the Datograph.
I still have the 1815 Chronograph that came before the Datograph, but got rid of both the 5170G-001 and 5170G-010 that came after it.
Anyway, try to find one and get a feel of it before committing.
Good luck.
