For all those who own the Explorer II 16570 and the Tudor Black Bay...

I have a Tudor Black Bay Blue (Heritage) and I love it but it wears big.

I am on the verge of getting a Polar 16570 knowing it is a smaller watch but was hoping I could see some wrist shots of both watches on the same wrist so i can get some kind of relative comparison.

I'm having a hard time finding one to see in person.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks!

The TBB does wear big and thick, feels like a 42mm to me. A 40mm with slim lugs will feel considerably smaller.

Different colours, but same models, same wrist...7.25 inch. Both equally comfortable really.

Well, you have a side by side pic already but here are some pics of mine as promised. I no longer own the 16570 but might get it back eventually.
