I'm sure this was discussed already but I was checking out the Chrono Galatic today. Why is it only 39mm???? and where is the B01 movement?

I was comparing it to the B01, which is starting to grow on me a bit but not enough to want to own it. I think the Chrono Galatic is REALLY nice but I'd never buy it because it's so small. Are there any thoughts about increasing the size to 44 or 45? I love the face but it's just too darn small. The B01 has a square design in the face which I can't stand, the Evolution has a bulls eye design in the face which is kinda cool, but the CG just has a few vertical lines which is think flow really really nicely.

I've read some comments on the B01 bezel, what's so bad about it? And why is there outrage over the rider tabs? I don't love the jumbo font on the bezel but it's not as bad in person as it is in photos. But I'm really confused about the purpose of designing this watch...it's small, no in house movement, and it looks like the Evolution and the B01 had a child together. If this watch was 45mm and had an inhouse movement I would love to buy the white or bronze roman numeral dial.

It is exactly the same case as the Chrono Cockpit it has replaced - 39mm.
