More often than not, it is hard to envision the difference between sensor sizes purely by going over a spec sheet. The picture below should give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the GR II and WB750.

As you can see, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The GR II due to its larger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF less difficult and the Ricoh GR II will deliver greater detail as a result of its extra 3MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The younger GR II is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
