Congrats

Double congrats! Found this post really helpful as I was considering both exactly for the reasons you listed. I also have a ~6.5” wrist so even more helpful. The 216570 doesn’t look as bad as I thought on a smaller wrist but 5 digit seem to “fit” better.

16570 will be the safest choice, mainly due to fit and comfort.

Congrats, i guess...

Stunning i would say, congrats.

I'd be curious to know what you think of easylink clasp on on of your other 5 digit references, i.e., with one permanent link already removed on 6:00 side.

Aside from that, my opinion is the 5 digit polar seems usable in more situations due to smaller size.

Big congrats! In the process of adding a 16570 to the bunch.. Miss the one I used to have years and years ago and your post has just reinforced my decision, thank you!

Sorry but I don't really understand your question. Easylink only available on newer 6-digit reference. For my 6.5in with older 5-digit bracelet, I need to remove one of the four permanent links at 6 o'clock or reverse the clasp. With this modification, I would said it's more comfortable than 6-digit bracelet/watch due to generally lighter weight of 5-digit watch plus bracelet.

Additional pic for reference. Lume shot. Superluminova (green) VS Chromalight (blue). I’m a fan of both.

Agree with most of the points highlighted by the OP. My pair is black and white though.
