The chap's are correct Terry, the difference is just over 10g; give or take.

Hello again,
The easiest way to tell if you have a lightweight or heavy Zimmerman (besides the weight) is to look at the badge and see if there is a catch-plate used to mount the reverse catch to the actual badge itself. Heavy versions do not require a catch-plate as they were produced in a higher-quality metal. The later produced Zimmerman's, which are referred to as "leight-weight" examples have a catch plate between the badge and the actual reverse catch. That is how one can tell which version is on the screen in front of them (as obviously you can't weigh somebody's badge)
Hope this helps.
