I don't know if I'm seeing properly, but it looks a lot less bulky that the 41mm version. Not just the overall size, but the lugs look thinner.

This is a winner in my book.

I love the dials on the new DD40, the baton-roman dial is very interesting. The waffle ice blue dial is taking some time to grow on me though..

Would be interesting if there's a side by side comparison DD2 and DD40

MUCH better than the DDII, on closer examination the new roman numerals are really cool, but in the video the bezel is pretty honkin' still cf the 36. Gotta check 'em out in person.

The platinum with ice blue dial is amazing......I can't wait for Dr. Tom to get one.
