How to Measure
1

Lay arm flat, palm up.

2

Measure the flat width across top of wrist.

Garmin Forerunner® 570 - 47mm (010-02971-00)
Case: 47mmL2L: 47mmThick: 12.9mm
Sweet Spot4mm clearance. Perfect for sports watches - bold presence, no overhang.
Garmin tactix® 8 – 47 mm, AMOLED (010-03405-00)
Case: 47mmL2L: 47mmThick: 13.8mm
Sweet Spot4mm clearance. Perfect for sports watches - bold presence, no overhang.

The Garmin Forerunner® 570 - 47mm and Garmin tactix® 8 – 47 mm, AMOLED share a near-identical 47mm case, so wrist presence comes down to thickness, lug-to-lug and weight.

The Garmin Forerunner® 570 - 47mm is the slimmer of the two (12.9mm vs 13.8mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.

On the wrist the Garmin Forerunner® 570 - 47mm feels lighter (50g vs 73g, case only).
