Besides the size increase from 42mm to 43mm, is there any other difference?

Thanks

Wider, yes: 43mm [up from 42mm]

But also:

Thicker: 10.8mm [up from 10.4mm]
Slightly heavier: 46.7 grams acc to Watchalyzer
Lugs: same 22mm
Movement: same B79 w battery life of 3-4 years

Also, aesthetically:

changed the hands, with skeleton hour hand and sharper minute hand
dropped the 24-hour markings on the outer dial
integrated the rider tabs
applied the wings
added 'Swiss made'
dropped the chimney
