Size, specs & wrist fit compared

Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 50mm, the GTR Mini is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 45mm, where the Balance 2 starts to hang over the edge. Above 50mm both sit cleanly, and the Balance 2 gives you more presence.
The Balance 2 wears larger than the GTR Mini (47.4mm vs 42.8mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The GTR Mini is the slimmer of the two (9.25mm vs 12.3mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the GTR Mini feels lighter (36.2g vs 43g, case only).
The Balance 2 is thinner than 80% of the 47mm watches we track and the GTR Mini than 99% of the 43mm ones — so both wear flatter than their widths suggest.
The Balance 2 is 4.6mm wider, 4.6mm longer, 3.1mm thicker and 6.8g heavier than the GTR Mini. Both are circular.
