You may well be right hopefully an extract from the heritage department at Breguet may reveal more.
I was fully expecting it to be 5 mm and although my measuring may not be that accurate it is certainly under 5 mm. I did notice from the movement picture that the movement is virtually flat to the watch case thickness and that the caseback is only very slightly raised whilst the glass is flat to the case. It really is not that much of a big deal at the end of the day as either way it is an Ultra Plate and IMHO a beautiful watch and I am happy. I have tried again to get better measurements and take some more pictures to try and show it more clearly. On the tape measure I have made sure the watch is dead on the 9cm mark and you can clearly see it doesn't reach the 9.5cm marker so IMHO is clearly under 5 mm and a fraction under the 3 mm marker.

My Breguet Classique 4605/3015BA Ultra Plate arrived today.
what an amazing find
A watch that truly deserves the Ultra Plate appelation.
Thank you for your comment and the case is just over 2mm I guess about 2.2mm but I am attaching some pictures to show it better.
Congratulations, Marc!
Many thanks for your kind words Emmanuel.
I'm glad if the injections had even a small beneficial effect.
Congrats!
Actually as hard as it is to believe I do mean the whole watch is just over 2mm, I have now posted some pictures a few posts up from here to show it.
It is hard to be completely accurate but yes I have included the glass in my best attempts at getting an accurate measurement.

My JLC Master Ultra Thin MUT 38 is supposedly 6.3 mm thick.
