40mm on Submariner or GMT2 vs 39mm on the 6119 is very different. Because the bezel on the sub takes a lot of real estate, the dial face takes up less of the 40mm than the 39mm of the 6119. A larger dial will make the watch look bigger.

The lugs on the 6119 also have a slight curve, so it won’t conform as well to a smaller wrist.

Lastly, my comment above applies. Consider it if you try one on. I was recently at the Patek Saloon and got a chance to try on a bunch of watches. The nice thing is that these watches are actually all broken in, so the leather strap conforms to your wrist and you can really see how the watch will look.
Thank you, confirms my thoughts as well. Haven't had one on the wrist yet.
