I bought one of the earlier editions with the sand-blasted finished steel case, and I do find it somewhat big; the size is even more noticeable when I switch back to a 40mm marine watch. But, if I keep it on the wrist for a week or longer, I do get accustomed to the size and don't notice it as much. I agree with Nicolas: would have liked a deeper water resistance too, as it would have been nice to possibly swap the straps and not be so mindful of it getting dunked in water.
Having said that, it is quite a lovely piece to have on the wrist.
