5mm is still a bit thick... Nomos' DUW 3001 is 3.2mm thick.
Still, it always looks like protruding glass and a cheaply machined case are the main culprits. That Paul Newman Daytona knock off was about 10cm thick :).

I couldn't quite believe that he went ahead with that design. A good idea turned bad. I can't imagine it wears well either with that much size and weight on the watch head itself.

16mm!
I think the new watch I posted upthread is 14mm or thereabouts. Not thin.

I noticed that it was missing thickness but that's the first time I've seen it omitted on the drawings I've seen.
I though they were all chonkers because of movement choice, rather than machining.
Edit: The movement is only 5mm thick so maybe you're on to something there.
