Good idea to trial speedy pro first before getting (if even possible) new snoopy?

Is it a good idea to get the speedy pro first to make sure the size is a good fit for my wrist before getting (if even possible) the new snoopy ? I have small wrists 6.25” so I have some concerns it could be too large. The two models are exactly the same size, correct?

There is never a bad time to get a Speedy Pro.

Gentleman above is right. I'd buy a regular Speedy pro before the new snoopy no doubt.

Same size. Don't let the 42 mm size scare you. Wears much smaller. Bezel with is less than 39 mm i believe. Either will fit you fine.

I have a 6.5 wrist the regular speedy is definitely in the larger side of what I want to wear.

As said they wear smaller than the 42mm quoted as the case is asymmetric. The extra mm come from the crown guards.

Yes, go like this and see how you feel it, in the worse case scenario you will love the standard speedy pro and keep it

Such a stunning dial

That one, along with the 2004 Japan Racing dial are probably my 2 favourite Speedies of all time

I usually wear a 40-42 mm watch and I tried on the Speedy before buying, but I only did that to see if I liked it as mush in person, which I did. It does seem to wear smaller than 42mm, I have a larger wrist but I love it.
