Yeah they’re a chunk of steel but not outrageous. If you go by the dimensions it sounds bigger than the SPB051 et al (the 62MAS inspired ones) but they wear smaller as the case flares out past the bezel (the bezel is slightly recessed into the case) and the underside of the case is heavily scalloped.
Also they’re not what you would call thin but they’re popular with the Seiko fanboys because they’re at least 2mm thinner than any of the regular Marinemaster 300 models that are a similar case shape. Plus the bracelet (excuse the greasy fingerprints) is nicer than the ones on those despite the watch costing less than half the price.
