Amazfit Cheetah Square vs Garmin Lily 2 Active
Size, specs & wrist fit compared

Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 46mm, the Garmin Lily 2 Active is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 40mm, where the Amazfit Cheetah Square starts to hang over the edge. Above 46mm both sit cleanly, and the Amazfit Cheetah Square gives you more presence.
The Amazfit Cheetah Square wears larger than the Garmin Lily 2 Active (38.7mm vs 38mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Amazfit Cheetah Square is the slimmer of the two (9.9mm vs 11mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Garmin Lily 2 Active feels lighter (29g vs 37g, case only).
Among the 339 39mm watches we hold thickness for, the Amazfit Cheetah Square is thinner than 74%, so it wears flatter than its width suggests.
The Garmin Lily 2 Active is middle-of-the-pack for thickness among the 356 38mm watches in the database.
The Amazfit Cheetah Square is 0.7mm wider, 6mm longer, 1.1mm thinner and 8g heavier than the Garmin Lily 2 Active.

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.

Balanced Fit
44mm 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 44mm, 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.

38mm on a 55mm wrist
Well inside your wrist on every measurement — you have room to go a size up if you want more presence.
