Is the Garmin Approach® S4 thick for a 46mm watch?

At 14.8mm, thicker than 69% of 46mm watches — it will sit noticeably high on the wrist. Thickness, not case width, is what decides whether a watch catches on a shirt cuff.

What other watches are the same size as the Garmin Approach® S4?

Honor Watch 5 Pro - Bluetooth, Huawei Watch GT 6 - 46mm, Samsung Galaxy Watch8 LTE Classic, Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M Co-Axial Worldtimer 45.5 Master Chronometer GMT Ceramic / Black - Grey / Rubber all sit within half a millimetre of the Garmin Approach® S4's 46mm case, so they cover the same amount of wrist.

What is the lug-to-lug of the Garmin Approach® S4?

61mm, against a 46mm case width. Lug-to-lug is the measurement that decides overhang: if it exceeds the flat width of your wrist, the lugs sit past the edge no matter how modest the case diameter looks.
