Which one fits you
Both need much the same wrist — roughly 49–68mm across the flat of the wrist. Neither will fit where the other won't, so decide on thickness, weight and features instead.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra wears larger than the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic - Wi-Fi · 47mm (47.4mm vs 46.5mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic - Wi-Fi · 47mm is the slimmer of the two (10.9mm vs 12.1mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
Among the 83 47mm watches we hold thickness for, the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra is thinner than 87%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
Among the 149 47mm watches we hold thickness for, the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 Classic - Wi-Fi · 47mm is thinner than 90%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
