The D2™ in short
The figures that decide whether this watch suits you, pulled out of the full specification sheet further down.
- Rated for 50 hours of use per charge.
- 82g on the wrist. Heavier than 75% of the 49mm watches we have weights for.
- 1.2" (30.4 mm) diameter display.
- fiber-reinforced polymer case, domed glass glass.
Does the D2™ fit your wrist?
Drag the slider to your wrist width and see the D2™ overlaid at true scale. Lug-to-lug — not case diameter — decides whether a watch overhangs your wrist.
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.

Sweet Spot
49mm on a 55mm wrist
Across the wrist it works — 3.0mm spare each side — but a tall watch on this wrist. Fine over a sleeve, awkward under one.
On a 55mm wrist the sweet spot is 47–53mm lug to lug. This one is 49mm.
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.

Substantial without being a burden — the usual weight of a steel watch on a wrist this size. (1.5g per mm of wrist)

Will the Garmin D2™ fit my wrist?

How long does the Garmin D2™ battery last?
Garmin rates it at 50 hours per charge in everyday use.
How does the Garmin D2™ battery compare with other Garmin watches?
At 14 days in everyday use it ranks #151 of the 285 Garmin watches in our database — below the middle of the range. The full ranking, including GPS and power-saving figures, is on our Garmin battery life comparison.
Is the Garmin D2™ thick for a 49mm watch?
At 17mm, thicker than 96% of 49mm 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 D2™?
Huawei Watch Ultimate 2, Boult Audio Sterling Pro, Kospet Tank T2, Tissot Lepine Quartz all sit within half a millimetre of the Garmin D2™'s 49mm case, so they cover the same amount of wrist.
