is this the 25 incher from a few diary posts earlier? If so, it should be bigger in diameter now but from this angle looks like the tape might be picking up some air space. I will guess 6.24 pounds...hope you have a personal best wixom.

Here is my analysis, fwiw.
We know that on 8/14 it was 25".
The plant looks healthy.
The fruit doesn't seem to have any big gaps between lobes.
It "should " be around 27" in circumference now if it grows the way my big ones have. The biggest question is the depth???
So my guesstimate is 6.75.
And you better send that check back, lol, nobody is guessing 10 lb!!!😜
