Thanks for the information. Which would you pick between the 6 solar or titanium?

Charging the battery a bit on my Tactix Delta sapphire Solar. I left it in the sun for 2 hours yesterday and it gained 1% battery. Awesome...so worth the 1.1 k€ price tag...

The solar thing is a joke. Absolutely worthless.
But I like the watch and the fact that it's the only one out there with solar AND sapphire. I feel so unique. Oh my.

The 6 Solar got a Gorilla Glass and a solar function which is a "gadget" compared to the Garmin Instinct Solar which can sustain only with the power of the sun, a true "survival" watch IMHO.

The 6 Titanium got a sapphire glass. Harder than Gorilla Glass but with much more reflects.
The Gorilla is matte and very legible like... the Garmin instinct (solar or not)...

I got the Silver Titanium 6 for 18 months. Very happy with it. Not a single mark on the sapphire glass.
Some light scratches on the bezel which can be fixed with a jeweler pad.

Here she is. My favorite Garmin so far (and I love Instinct !! )

Measures 49mm from outside of upper lug to outside of lower lug.

By my definition of lug-to-lug distance which is outside of upper springbar hole to outside of lower springbar hole:

The Instinct measures 40mm:

So to be clear, the picture above is of a 40mm garmin Instinct? I am looking all over the web for the lug to lug for both 40 and 45mm models.

No. To be clear, that is a photo of the original Instinct - Standard Edition which is a 45mm model.
