If the movement has had all the upgrades, it should be fine. Note that a lot of the negativity about this movement (and the versions that are not co-axial) comes from one guy repeatedly trashing it on seemingly every watch forum he comes across.
It's a 12 ligne movement, so 27.6 mm. The 2500 is 11.5 lignes (25.6 mm) and it also came in a 45 mm case, so not sure I would consider it "tiny" really.
