It looks like the case thickness is over 12mm on the SubC. 9mm is way too thin. The jumbo is around 8.4mm thick, and the RO 15300 is 9.4mm thick; I can't see the sub being as thin as those.

Not very far apart in fact

Arnaud, I almost bought a diver last week. Tried it on. It is just super thick. It is miles thicker than the 5712/5711. It also is much thicker on the wrist than the sub-c. I don't know the exact measurements but to me after wearing 15202, 5726, 5711, 5167 I just couldn't get used to it. Have you at least tried an AP diver on?

Yes you're right JJ, I lazily just did it while on it's cushion and didn't count the extra caseback which is a 2/3mm, however that really sinks into the wrist so the watch wears like a 10/11mm thick watch as opposed to the 14mm of the Diver, hence they feel very different.

No Neil, the sub is much thicker, 9mm would make it 1mm thicker than the 5712, impossible

No Mike, I need to try as on pics I love it but there's a big chance I may find it way too thick on me, but I really love how it looks.

I have tried it on and I found the thickness ok, better balanced than a SD4000 for example, so I have ordered it and will get it on the 24th, I think I will keep it, wanted for as long as I can remember a ceramic watch and really liked this one, when I saw the white one it seemed to be huge, but in black it seems fine
