GMT Master 16750 - 0.72mm
Submariner 16610 - 1.51mm (more than twice the tickness of the old GMT)
Lady's DJ (older) 69174 - 0.50mm
Lady's DJ (newer) 79174 - 0.49mm
Gent's DJ (older) 16013 - 0.75mm
Gent's DJ (newer) 16233 - 0.81mm

Great info, Vanessa.
The Sub caseback thickness of 1.51 mm is impressive. By the same token, can we assume that the caseback thickness of the YM (40 mm) would be the same as the Sub?
