Farer Lander IV GMT — it is 45mm lug-to-lug versus 47mm, and lug-to-lug is what decides whether a watch overhangs a smaller wrist.

Which is better for swimming or rough daily wear?

They are rated the same, so water resistance will not decide this. Choose on strap material and how much you mind scratching the case.

Is the more expensive one worth it?

Farer Lander IV GMT is the value pick at roughly $200 less. Pay more only if a specific difference above matters to you — otherwise the cheaper one is the smarter buy. Confirm live listings, since marketplace pricing moves.
