Would you trade a Blancpain FF for a Sub-C

Hi Guys

I am facing a dilemma and need input from you and your experience.

I currently have a new Blancpain Fifty Fathoms on sailcloth. It is a stunning watch, well finished inside out, 1315 caliber is having an amazing power reserve of 5 days and is also beautiful but not that it is so important as it is not seen through case back. Lume is killer on this watch both on the dial and on the bezel. Only problem with this beauty is that I find it quite big to say the least 45mm... I have the watch for 5 days now and can't see myself wearing such a huge watch on my skinny wrist of 6.75. I taught I could adapt but 5 days later, I am still thinking. Dos it look silly ? out of place ?

I am thinking of selling it and getting the Sub-c instead. I am looking for a diver, something with pedigree, solid, with a workhorse movement that will be the partner of my AP15300 in my collection. I have been thinking of the Sub-C.

What do you guys think ? am I crazy ? Any other alternative ?

A picture showing the beauty taking all the space on my forearm.
