No, it doesn't feel too big but it wears bigger than other 40mm watches I've had. It's more a case of do you like the proportions rather than is it too big to be honest, as it is tall for it's width. The shape suits the tool looks though for me. I haven't clouted it on any door frames yet, although I suspect the door frame would come off worse if I did 
I had an Aquatimer, was yours the chrono version of the one below? Nice watch but it was too big for me (the reason i sold it) and the 756 definitely wears smaller. The 756 is one you need to try on if buying new I'd say as it isn't a conventional shape. If buying used then it's not so much of an issue as you can punt it on without a loss if you don't like it.
It is quite heavy but not uncomfortable. Not a watch to buy if you wear your watches loose I'd say though. It needs to be snug on the wrist to stop it sliding around. .

Yeah, that seems to be the most often comment that a 40mm watch that is 14mm in height is out of proportion. My main reason for asking is that I had an IWC aquatimer Chrono at 44mm and 15mm, which I often banged off of things. Does it also wear heavy?
I don't think they wear heavy, but I notice the height. It's a bit like the old Breitling Navitimer in that respect. It looks a bit pot-like from the side. I don't wear mine all that often, as it lacks a bit of fine adjustment in the bracelet for those times when you get a bit hot and sweaty and your wrist expands.This isn't a UTC one, but I suspect they wear the same.
