Yes, but at 50% off now it seemed like a no-brainer. I pull off wearing this watch 5 out of 7 days, despite the thickness, and with the 1151 adjustable Ti clasp it always fits just right. For me, the watch seems to be right at home on my arm.
Photo taken from 10 feet away by my wife while on vacation (cropped from 12mp to 0.6mp), and it doesn't look too big or out of place at all. They always looks bigger in photos from a cell phone 2 feet away.

How much thinner is the 3rd gen 9900? I tried on the 3rd Gen recently, and it didn't seem any different in size or wear. It's nice and all, but the grey and orange just doesn't feel as special or luxurious as the gloss blue dial and LM bezel. If I want grey, my GSOTM fits the bill so much better.
