Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 48mm, the Garmin Lily 2 is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 37mm, where the Amazfit Bip 5 starts to hang over the edge. Above 48mm both sit cleanly, and the Amazfit Bip 5 gives you more presence.
The Amazfit Bip 5 wears larger than the Garmin Lily 2 (38mm vs 35.4mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Garmin Lily 2 is the slimmer of the two (10.1mm vs 11.2mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
Both are middle-of-the-pack for thickness among the 38mm and 35mm watches in the database.
The Amazfit Bip 5 is 2.6mm wider, 10.5mm longer, 1.1mm thicker and 1.6g heavier than the Garmin Lily 2.

Watch Fit Tool
For sports watches, lug-to-lug (L2L) is what matters most — it decides whether a watch overhangs your wrist. Bulky is fine; overhang is not.
Measure at the point where you wear your watch — typically just below the wrist bone.
Flat width — lay your arm on a table, palm facing up, and measure straight across the top of your wrist with a ruler. Bone to bone; do not follow the curve down the sides.
Around — wrap a tape measure snugly round the wrist. No tape? Wrap a strip of paper, mark the overlap and hold the strip against a ruler.
Width ≠ circumference. They are different numbers — around 170mm is about 64mm across — so set the toggle to whichever one you actually measured before you type it in.

Case 45.9mm · Lug-to-lug 45.9mm · Thickness 11.2mm · 26g
Balanced Fit
45.9mm on a 55mm wrist
Comfortably inside the edges of your wrist, and it seats and sits low enough to wear without thinking about it.
On a 55mm wrist the sweet spot is 47–53mm lug to lug. This one is 45.9mm, so you could go bigger.
Measure where you wear it, just below the wrist bone. Either of these works — the tool converts between them.
- 1. Flat width — arm flat on a table, palm up. Measure straight across the top of the wrist, bone to bone, ignoring the curve down the sides.
- 2. Around — a tape, or a strip of paper marked and held against a ruler, snug the whole way round.
Leather: Attaches at the lugs, so the case back rests on your skin. Thins and softens with wear. Typical figures, not this model’s own.

35.4mm on a 55mm wrist
Well inside your wrist on every measurement — you have room to go a size up if you want more presence.
