What's your favorite "thin" watch?
I read a few articles and it launched me down a rabbit hole looking into thin watches, defined here as 9mm thick or less.

Wish I had the money!
In terms of thinness, I think Bvlgari Octo Finnisimo is thinnest. But overall package wise I still prefer JLC (But it could be that I am biased because I love JLC better than Bvlgari as a Brand 🤣

From a "watch" perspective, there probably aren't many people who would argue that Bvlgari is a better brand than JLC. Bvlugari design typically doesn't move me, but I read and watched reviews of the Octo Finissimo that loudly sing the watch's praises. I'll probably never own either brand in the near term, but I'm interested to hear other's opinions.

That is a beauty! So clean and So elegant!
Good choice! I prefer white gold over yellow gold though but that‘s personal preference.
These… the missus and I rocking it together 🥰

Thank you, Sir! I appreciate your taste too. Yup, limited edition for the Italian Bulgaristi. 😉😊

Love the wrist shot. That thing is amazing...so thin, deep blue dial color, and it looks very comfortable. Thanks!

Lovely! Great execution of matching watches.

Simple, elegant, beautiful! Nice pick!
Thank you, Sir! It is a Titanium 5.15mm thin case, so feather light. 😍
Any Nomos?
Richard Mille & Ferrari (which i really hate completely as a brand 😂)
Danish Design at 7.3mm.
Don't see that many Casio Edifice watches here! Thanks for sharing!
This is thin enough for me:
Cracker of a watch!
Nomos. 7.7mm.
I love the subtle touches of blue on the dial and the unique strap.
Skagen 111709 on a RAF strap. Case is 8mm.
I think Skagen has some very nice minimalist dials.
Speaking of Swatch, I also have a thin plastic Swatch that my mum bought me many years ago when I was a teenager:
Now... That's a thin watch!
My reliable Tank must de Cartier! Wore pretty much daily at my college campus haha

Thanks for sharing. I haven't seen many Hermès' watches here either, and this is a thin beauty!

I love mine, the main thing was getting the bracelet length absolutely right so I was adding and taking links for ages. It's a lovely piece with Genta DNA and a gorgeous micro rotor movement. I'm also a JLC fan boy but that's a whole different vibe (dress rather than integrated sports).

Loving the OF. I didn't realise that you had one in your extensive collection!

Thank you! I do own a few. 😉 Take a look at my gallery!
This is my favorite thin watch at 6mm. But also the only one in my price range 🫤

It's a cheap two piece seatbelt NATO I bought on Amazon. But it does almost perpefectly complement the colors on the dial.

Love it!
For me the JLC watches and the MaxBill are really thin.
The MaxBill wears slim because of the domed crystal but is 10mm. But you mentioned the Junghans Ultra Slim. Do you mean the Junghans Meister Chronometer with 9mm or the Meister Handwound with 7.3mm? The hand wound version is really slim. Stunning to see it in person.
