Reminded me strongly of the Echo Neutra Rivenara. Cheers JML

At around 4mm in the 1970s but the modern ones from 1991-1993 were all a tad above 5mm but had a display case back as a result.

Best, Emmanuel

So - the thinnest watch in my collection by quite a margin is my Piaget 900p - 3.65mm I also have a few watches in the 8-9mm range as follows. Interestingly, some of these are marketed as “extra thin” or “ultra thin” whereas others don’t mention this at a...  

And a watch firmly on my to get list 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Lovely one! What are the ones you have I. The 8-9mm range? EDIT: they didn’t load for me the first time around. Nice collection 🙌🏻

For me, the 900p and the 910p were the most elegant of the move to create the thinnest watches at the time. They were subsequently surpassed but at the expense of the aesthetics - in my opinion. The dial is interesting and functional - not a watch that I ... 

In the sense that it’s not going anywhere. I feel they did a spectacular job here 🙌🏻

I think the rest of your amazing collection is more Extra Thin despite what the manufacturer may claim but that doesn't stop them from being amazing and beautiful watches. Marc

They all get plenty of time on the wrist 😊

Best, Emmanuel

My collection is quite eclectic - I’m not wedded to a particular manufacture but purchase calibres and complications that appeal. Some have done better than others over the years in terms of price retention or appreciation but it’s all academic. These wil... 

comprises many great pieces, like yours!

If you know you horology, then you would know that Jean-Antoine Lépine is the father of the modern watch. You would know him better as the master who taught Breguet how to make a watch. He is also credited for making one of the earliest mechanical adding ...  

Thanks for the description, too 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The below will give more context to how important this watch is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Antoine_L%C3%A9pine

Admittedly, pocket watches are not much appreciated so it is very welcome to hear you find my watch worth looking at

and your pocket watch really looks wonderful.

Best, Emmanuel

Thin: The Breguet 5967 'Art Deco Damier' in yellow gold, at 6.94mm, powered by an extra-thin manual-wind pocket watch caliber. Thinner: The Bulgari Octo Finissimo Automatic in sandblasted stainless steel, at 5.25mm, powered by an automatic caliber with a ...  

From the Breguet to the two modern day champions of thinness with bvlgari and Piaget you have all the bases covered 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Your Breguet is very special and very appealing. Best, Emmanuel

...  

Thanks for joining in with it - Blancpain hasn’t played a prominent role in this space lately but yours is a real beauty 🙌🏻

Best, Emmanuel

...  

The Ebel looking especially slim here! Out of curiosity, how thin is the CK?

I most certainly have no aversions to a nicely made quartz 😊

Best, Emmanuel

Both quartz. The Hamilton is +/-6.75mm with a very slinky integrated bracelet. Movado Museum Watch is +/-5.25mm on a Spiedel stretch bracelet with leather panels. ...  

The bracelet on the Museum Watch being especially funky - don’t think I have seen that one before 🙌🏻

Not the biggest fan of slim and thin watches as i have a bigger wrist . But here some of my thinnest ones My first watch i bought more then 3 decades ago. Back then i already had a different taste as some of my friends were wearing a Cartier or Rolex or o...  

And I am sure all three unique in this thread 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I believe you had a thin Must de Cartier at some point, too, right? 😊

So technically its still in the family 😉 ...  

And great to see my memory is not yet going the way of the dodo 🦤😂

Best, Emmanuel

Not that easy for me this week. 😉 - But as I practically have no really ultra-thin watch, I‘ll try to name some „rather thin“ pieces.. Hope these (somehow) fill the bill.. JLC E502, Futurematic, (Porthole: left winding status, rt: seconds hand) - at least...  

All elegant and well proportioned and slim enough - I was asking for the slimmest after all, not putting concrete values on it 😊👍🏻

Love the Reverso group shot!

Best, 😊

No supper thin & very domed plexy,but like most JLC it sits really well on your wrist & wears thinner than it is. Cheers JML ...  

Beautiful thin watches you share here. The Futurematic is a watch I love and a pending in my collection. Never had the chance to find it in my local hunting grounds regret to say. Maybe I’ll be lucky some day during my travels. The JLC alarm are lovely wa... 

Best, Emmanuel

But because Octo has larger diameter and brushed finishes, it looks thinner. So i pick this picture for Slim watch : ...  

My attempt, probably these 3 in the sub 10mm… ...  

I was hoping for some watches we do not see as often here and you clearly fulfilled the expectation fully! The two Blancpains are rare guests but the Poljot De Luxe might have been posted here for the first time in the forum’s history 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 ... 

...  

This was my thinnest to date. My first ever Patek and JCL in one capture! ...  

Is it still with you?

After a a year I let it go for the 5035, but kept me company during a number of significant events.

Best, Emmanuel

The beautiful salmon or almost copper is quite difficult to capture, especially indoors: My smallest diameter timepiece at 36.5mm: Is also my thinnest at 8.2mm: Of course, there has to be a shot with the ever present snow: HAGWE!🥂 ...  

I have one of its distant relatives, the LUC Sport 2000 - also nicely thong for a sports watch 😊 ...  

Once again, I was ‘late to the game’ regarding Chopard!😔

Their spread came in phases. They did a lot of things right early on but some took a while to take and some didn’t take as is often the case 👍🏻

. . . is the ref 3697 . . . . . . ca '45. Haven't worn it in a while, Kristjan . . . long overdue for . . . . . . some well-deserved wrist time. Art ...  

And a rare non round thon one - there should be more choice in this field if it went according to me 🤞🏻

. . . gaining ~ ten seconds per day. Not bad for a movement eighty years old . . .

Your pool table compositions are a signature shot from you! Very nice! Hagwe! Abel

JLC Master Ultra Thin - 34mm of pure pleasure Best, E. ...  

One of the prime specimen of the genre and so appealing and well done! Got really close to getting it at one point and may still do so eventually 👍🏻 Thanks for joining in 🙏🏻

Best, Emmanuel

Hi All My thinnest watches - was thinking it was just my Nomos, but I'd overlooked my Swatch Skin. Cheers JML ...
