I have both, and like a lot of people above say you really need both on the wrist to see what’s best for you.

For me, smallish wrist, the Kermit is by far the better “look” in terms of fit on the wrist. But the Hulk despite the wide hips wears and sits very well on my wrist.

That said, I’m not overly keen on it when I look down at my wrist as I think it looks a little big. I would not have bought a regular modern Sub, the green is what pushed to making an exception.

Get them on your wrist.

As it has been said, both are solid watches. I prefer the solid feeling of the 6 digit; mostly due to the solid links, milled clasp, and glide lock. I also prefer the maxi dial, the ceramic bezel, and the updated movement.

Yes, I would prefer thinner lugs. But, not at the expense of all of the other benefits!

I guess there is no right or wrong answer when it comes to 16610 vs. 116610. At the end of the day it all comes to personal preference vs. your wrist size.
Try to try them both on and follow your instinct. Cheers.

16610 with the 97200 bracelet.

Best of both worlds.
