Garmin Lily has been announced as the “small and fashionable smartwatch women have been waiting for.” Available in two models, Classic and Sport, the 34mm watch case, T-bar lug style, subtly patterned lens, and various color options make Lily ideal for women seeking a fashion-forward alternative to what’s currently available on the smartwatch market.
The details
Designed by women for women, Lily’s look and feel has been inspired by classic, jewelry-like timepieces designed for smaller wrists. The watch’s 34mm case is Garmin’s smallest yet, and its unique T-bar lugs and slender 14mm band enhance the “overall feminine aesthetic.” Lily features a unique metallic patterned lens that reveals a bright liquid crystal monochromatic touchscreen display that disappears when not in use. Each of the six different Lily styles has its own lens design, carefully created to be subtle and textural; a refined detail that complements rather than competes.
Lily Classic features an Italian leather band, stainless steel bezel and hardware, and comes in three timeless colorways. The lens patterns for Classic were inspired by high-end fashion but made subtle for everyday wear.
On the other hand, Lily Sport comes with a silicone band, aluminum bezel and hardware, and is available in three fresh, athleisure-inspired colorways. The Sport styles feature organic lens patterns that allude to nature, health and wellness.
Health and fitness tracking
More than an accessory, Lily leverages Garmin’s health and fitness features for whole body wellness.
