    I do, my wrist is a little larger than yours but I personally prefer the smaller option



    However, this will not be the right choice for most people.

    It's great that we get the choice, and very nice to see Solar and Multi-band 6 options in the smaller size as well.

    I see yours is 20 Bar too ... the BGD-S5600 is only 10 Bar !

    I'd try before you buy just in case, the likes of H Samuel normally have a varient or two in stock.
    If you're after bigger buttons, the versions with a screw case back have considerably easier buttons to operate

    As we're sharing pics, here's some pics of my squares past-and-present








    And a few with aftermarket parts. I don't personally do this anymore, but I did have some fun in the past with it!

    Yup, and it also has the option of having the date set the correct way!

    It was a limited run: BGD5000U

    They don’t seem to have used the module in anything else.
