Which size should you choose?
Choose the small H6401 for a more compact profile
At 27.9 × 21.5 mm and 6.2 mm thick, the H6401 is the smaller and slimmer of these two references. Its dial keeps to hours and minutes, without a date display. It is the more straightforward option if you prefer a compact case and a time-only display.

Choose the medium H6954 for a larger case and date
The H6954 measures 34.6 × 26.7 mm and is 7.3 mm thick. Its larger dimensions give it more presence on the wrist, and its dial adds a date indicator. CHANEL listed it at $300 more than the H6401 on its U.S. site at the time of comparison; that is a page-displayed U.S. price difference, not a permanent or worldwide price gap.
CHANEL’s watch size guide explains how to measure wrist circumference with a paper strip and recommends trying a watch in a boutique if you are unsure. The guide includes BOY·FRIEND among single-size watch categories but does not give a wrist-size fit range for either H6401 or H6954. Use the case dimensions as a starting point, then try the specific reference on if the fit is uncertain.

What this comparison can—and cannot—tell you
These are representative small and medium steel-and-calfskin examples, not necessarily the two references a reader may have in mind when asking about a CHANEL BOY·FRIEND comparison. If you are comparing different references, check their product pages for the same decision points: case dimensions, display, movement, strap configuration, water resistance, and local price.
