That's what I like about the 35mm. I am used to wearing a larger watch because I have a SMP, an Oris BC3 Plus (42MM) and I used to have a Breitling Shark (39MM). However, I also have a Tudor Prince OysterDate (36MM) and an early 60s Omega Seamaster (34mm?). So I tend not to get used to a particular size as long as I rotate them regularly.
But the AT has one advantage over my old Omega and my Tudor- its weight. It's a nice heavy watch.
The 41mm AT is too big. It's a dress watch trying to be a sports watch. The 35mm is great, the 38mm is great. I tell customers that the AT is a dress watch with the soul of a sports watch.
