Speedmaster Broad Arrow questions

Hello,
Despite the very informative Omega website, I am unable to find some information about the Speedmaster Broad Arrow, more specifically the height and weight of the watch (steel on steel). I assume the width is comparable with the Speedmaster Pro. I also wonder if the Broad Arrow has the same capacity as the Pro to appear much less thick when on the wrist than the size seems to indicate.
About the movement, I wonder if such a complicated piece has a high cost of ownership as compared to less complicated movements such as used in the Seamasters. I assume that the problems that the ca.3303 I read about should now be resolved. It does surprise me that Omega doesn�t offer a visual back for this movement, perhaps there are second sources? (of course the visual back of the Pro won�t fit, or will it :)
Thanks in advance for your comments,
Willy
