Which one fits you
Both need much the same wrist — roughly 43–60mm across the flat of the wrist. Neither will fit where the other won't, so decide on thickness, weight and features instead.
The Epix Pro Gen 2 42mm wears larger than the Vivomove Trend (42mm vs 40.4mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Vivomove Trend is the slimmer of the two (11.9mm vs 14.1mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Vivomove Trend feels lighter (43.3g vs 63g, case only).
The Epix Pro Gen 2 42mm is thicker than 80% of the 42mm watches we track and the Vivomove Trend than 81% of the 40mm ones — so both sit higher than their widths suggest.
The Epix Pro Gen 2 42mm is 1.6mm wider, 1.6mm longer, 2.2mm thicker and 19.7g heavier than the Vivomove Trend. Both are circular.
