DaytonaC 116500 vs Submariner 16610 size enquiry

Hello, can anyone who has owned both these watches (16610 and 116500) let me know which one wears bigger?

I currently own the 16610 and I have really small wrists. I would consider this my limit and will not purchase the daytonaC if it wears bigger. It is impossible to try on prior to purchasing, hence the enquiring on the forum!

Much appreciated in advanced

I have both and they are nearly identical in weight/size on my wrist. My two favorite watches...

New Daytona 500 may feel slightly heavier on the wrist due to the redesigned bracelet having more metal and substance to it compared to the 4 and 5 digits professionals. Both wear extremely comfortably weight and size wise, IMO.

Daytona feels slightly smaller in my opinion but not enough to matter.

The Daytona c is around 5 grams heavier than the 16610 and doubt on the wrist anyone would notice the difference.

How about thickness?
Is the Sub thicker than the Daytona?
