I recently got a Garmin Lily 2 smartwatch. When I was deciding what watch to get, I went looking to see what different watch faces the Lily 2 had. I couldn’t find such a list online at the time. Now that I have a Lily 2, I’m making that list for other people’s reference.
The Lily 2 is a fitness tracking smartwatch from Garmin. It’s the smallest and lightest smartwatch they offer, and its features are a bit limited in comparison to other Garmin smartwatches. One of those limitations is in the area of watch faces. The Lily 2 does not support Garmin Connect IQ watch faces. It has its own set of predefined faces that you can choose from.
Each watch face shows at least the time and has a spot for additional information. That spot shows one piece of information at a time. You can cycle through the available pieces of information by tapping on the watch face. Some watch faces also have pieces of information (e.g. current heart rate) that they always show, in addition to the cyclable information slot.
The pieces of information available for the cyclable slot are:
- Steps
- Heart Rate
- Body Battery
- Calories
- Weather
- Battery (watch battery level)
- Garmin Logo
You can restrict the actually-displayed pieces of information in the settings, if you don’t want to go through all of them all the time. I only show weather and device battery; I use widgets to show the other information when I want to see it.
Although it’s not an option for the cyclable information, some watch faces show the current date. Those that do so always use the same formatting for it, showing the abbreviated day of the week and the day of the month.
In the images below, the spot for cyclable information will be shown as the Garmin logo. That serves to distinguish it from the always-shown information, since no watch face has an always-shown Garmin logo.

Note: See below for a description of the grey arc at the top. |

The next to last face shown above has a grey arc at the top of the face. When the cyclable display is showing a bit of information that can be viewed as a percentage (device battery, body battery, steps (as a percent of the daily goal), etc.), a section of that arc is illuminated in proportion to the percentage.
I have a Lily 2 Classic, but I believe the (non-Classic) Lily 2 has the same faces. This information is accurate as of March 2024 and firmware 3.11. Newer firmware might add, remove, and change the watch faces available.
