100M water resistant thin chronograph?

Does another 12ish mm chronograph with water resistance exist?

Besides the daytona I have only found 1 other 100m+ water resistant chronograph in the Vacheron Overseas 2nd gen chronograph that's around 12mm. Everything else is in the 14 to 16mm range when you start including omega.

The new zenith chronomaster sport is 14mm so it's getting close but still want thinner.

Patek has the 5990 Nautilus and 5968 Aquanaut that are both 12.5 or less and 120m rated.

Checkout the new Bulgari Octo Finissimo gmt Chrono in steel/blue. That should fit the specs.

The Blancpain Leman Flyback chrono from the 90s and 2000s is 38mm, about 10.5mm thick, and 100M WR.

Never considered this. Seems expensive for the movement involved. Why is the dial a mash of every color and design on the market?

The Zenith Chronomasters (tri-color) are 12.7mm thick and 100m water resistant. And that is including to the top of the domed crystal.

Look it up. The house of GP is well respected and this design was released just after the original Genta releases. It is a manufacture movement so unsure what you mean. Guilloche dial as the AP and value for the money especially in the 2nd hand market.
