Lily 2 vs Venu 4 41mm
Size, specs & wrist fit compared

Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 43mm, the Lily 2 is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 37mm, where the Venu 4 41mm starts to hang over the edge. Above 43mm both sit cleanly, and the Venu 4 41mm gives you more presence.
The Venu 4 41mm wears larger than the Lily 2 (41mm vs 35.4mm case), giving it more wrist presence — and needing a wider wrist to sit cleanly.
The Lily 2 is the slimmer of the two (10.1mm vs 12mm), so it slides under a cuff more easily.
On the wrist the Lily 2 feels lighter (24.4g vs 33g, case only).
Both are middle-of-the-pack for thickness among the 35mm and 41mm watches in the database.
The Venu 4 41mm is 5.6mm wider, 5.6mm longer, 1.9mm thicker and 8.6g heavier than the Lily 2. Both are circular.
