anyone else disappointed that the metal gold card isn't the same "build" as the metal platinum? i was hoping they would be the same. sounds like the gold is more like the CSP or CSR.

I didn’t expect the gold card to be as solid as the platinum is. It would take away from the allure of the platinum.

It’s still metal and while I prefer metal cards. There is such a thing as too heavy. I don’t think I would have liked the ritz card. The platinum and Altitude both fall out of my wallet if it’s upside down.

I'm about to apply for the gold. Any confirmation regarding the non-contactless vs contactless in weight and thickness?

I specifically ordered non contactless and happilly received it (hate the symbol). However, since I don't have a contactless version I can't compare weight so I have no clue. Regardless of whether it is or isnt heavy its a beautifully minimalist card that I cant stop pulling out my wallet Smiley LOL

Weigh it! It looks like the contactless card weighs 15g. How's the thickness compared to your CSP and Amazon card?

Yes, please weigh it. My finger is itching to click the apply button.
