A lot depends on wrist size, as 39mm sounds perfect for me with a 6.5" wrist.
When I bought it, my 36mm Explorer felt tiny compared to what I was used to. Now, I'm actually steering clear of new watches over 40mm, as anything else feels huge.
It's by far my favourite looking modern Tudor.
Give it a try as a sports/tool watch; I'm sure you'll get used to it. It's a travesty to have it languishing in a box instead of having adventures.
I haven't worn it during a Summer yet, so very much looking forward to it. I'm thinking of trying the Bond milanese bracelet as it should look great on that.
All and none of the above. If an occasion coincides with a watch purchase, that's great, but I'm too far down the rabbit hole to need an 'excuse' to buy a watch now.
