If choosing between the DDII and the DD40 I would compare metals, and dial configurations and then decide, The DD40 measures just under 40mm so 39.8 approx. If I had a larger wrist, or just want more presence on the wrist I would take the DDII. Certainly can't go wrong with the current piece, because it's more classically sized. I also like the dial updates in the DD40.
the fluted bezel is too thick and shrinks the dial so it just makes the whole case look off
