Hello again dear friend KM! You have set the bar so high …
… with your great array of thin watches opening the thread.
All of them great timepieces and my favorite one is your signature VC timepiece.
Your interesting theme made me realize that I don’t own truly thin watches in my collection but I wish to participate with my thinner ones.
(No one in the “thin as bookmark” category shared by our friend Simone previously! Lol!)
Here they are:
Royal Oak Jumbo (about 8 mm thick)
My two JLC Reverso watches (the Red dial was an special edition for Milano Boutique around 2011 if memory doesn’t fail)
And my Tank Americaine Cartier which is 8,6 mm at its maximum thickness center of case.
Have a great weekend dear KM and all our friends here!
Cheers! Abel

The March WS - ‘Slimline - your thinnest watch(es)’ is live 🔪
As announced on Wednesday the theme this weekend will be ‘Slimline - your thinnest watch(es)’. Since hoodies and white sneakers became the epitome of sartorial sophistication, the classical thin watch has suffered somewhat but i am sure that there are man...
And here some entries of mine to kick it off 👍🏻
My under 6mm range: And the slightly thicker 6-8mm range… ...
Thanks so much Emmanuel 👍🏻🙏🏻
There are a handful I would still like to add but nothing imminent 😊
Somewhat challenging theme, IMO.. yours are really a very nice bunch of watches..
Your MB, the Seiko and ( for me mainly) of course your signature piece, that fabulous VC 👌are my personal favs. - Thx for hosting this week‘s WS, Best 😊
Thanks so much HS111 👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Glad you like these and your entries are truly charming as well 🙌🏻👍🏻
Loving these elegant and clean shots!
The last one has to be my favourite, but the first and second are a close second!
Hello dear friend KM! What a wonderful theme for this weekend.
Thank you for your hosting! I’m sorry to arrive a bit late for answering the theme but I have been traveling and arrived yesterday late to my Miami destination. Will be ready to join for the judging tomorrow and will post my “thin” watches in a few minute...
The shot is right up my alley 👌🏻👍🏻
A watch as a bookmark in a long, long book - pure bliss 🧘🏻♂️ With two kids and a puppy not something that happens nearly often enough 🤷🏻♂️
I tend to read quite fast…
When given the chance. The daily maximum was over 800 pages but that was around 30 years ago, with no kinds or other responsibilities 😊
Amazing,
Two or three pages is my best performance before bed! This particular book is 930...
Dear Simone: this shot is great! The watch deserves a shot to share it here!
Well played my dear friend! Abel
Thank you dear Simone for sharing this shot. Your watch surely deserves to be seeen!
Beautiful… and really thin!! Keep enjoying and loving it! Cheers! Abel

Thank you, dear KMII, for hosting this month's edition of Wrist Scan.
My only truly slim watch is this quartz Omega De Ville , ref. 195.2378, which measures 32.5 x 4.3 mm. Best, Emmanuel ...
Love the Omegas from this era 👌🏻👍🏻
And if no one else is listening, they are technologically a lot more interesting than some of the much more pushed siblings from nowadays 😂🤪
I know it’s quartz but I stand by my statement. At least the movement used was not decades old in that case…
Required some R&D and technology 😉😁
Beautiful watch dear Emmanuel! That’s truly slim!
I don’t mind it’s Quartz. It has proved its reliability having been your only watch during 20 years!! Keep enjoying and loving it my friend! Hagwe! Abel
And a magnolia spring composition
….(rapidly assembled from what’s on-hand and not in the vault!) ...
When the strap is thicker than the watch 👌🏻👍🏻
Have long wanted to sample this one - one of the most exciting slim watches of the last years IMHO - thanks for joining in 🙌🏻👌🏻👏🏻
Wow Horo_Traveler!! That’s really thin!!
As our host remarks: thinner than its straps! Amazing!! Hagwe!! Abel
I'm happy to join this party which I suppose is no surprise to anyone and here are my Ultra Thin watches.
First up is my favourite watch. My Boucheron La Carree Ultra Thin which is 25mm x 25mm and is just 3.3mm thin Circa 1960. Boucheron La Carree Ultra Thin 1 Boucheron La Carree Ultra Thin 2 Boucheron La Carree Ultra Thin 3 Boucheron La Carree Ultra Thin 4 B...
I always expecting a strong showing from your end 👌🏻👏🏻👍🏻
These are some fantastic entries 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow !.. These are great shots from 2 superb watches 👌😊
That Boucheron La Carree is a remarkable treasure !.. - Also specifically like that last shot !👍
Thank you I am happy you think so.
The Boucheron really is my favourite watch now and I just love it. Marc
It’s a true gem 💎
And you were fortunate to find one of the really thin ones 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Credor 6020-5080
The 1979 cal. 6020 was one of Seiko’s earliest thin quartz movements. Under 5 mm for the watch, helped by the tight hand spacing and snap back. The case sides have a slight outward bow, which the ancient Greeks first applied to their columns, calling it e...
A truly lovely Credor 🙌🏻👌🏻👍🏻
I completely forgot about my SHAC Seiko’s from the 1970’s, both mechanical and quartz, all fairly thin 😊 ...
That Playboy watch is amazing and the others are very nice too.
I think people forget and under appreciate just what a vast range of watches Seiko have made and still make today. Marc
One of two…
Playboy branded Seikos I have (the other one would not qualify thinness wise). And in spite of the logo it has a lot of content, hi-beat movement, SHAC case, ultra thin…
I was never into playboy magazines but used to belong to The Playboy Casino on Park Lane in the late 70's.
They also had a nightclub in the building but I don't remember ever visiting it. Marc
