QuestionIs this really 33mm? I thought it only came in 40mm or 45mm versions?
Asked 3 years ago by HappyBuyer.
- Answer It clearly states in the specs that 33mm is the "screen size". The bezel size for these models is either 45 or 40 meaning the Venu is 45mm and the Venu 2S is the "smaller" one with a bezel of 40mm. Details all found on the Garmin site as well as other online retailers and specs. Don't know why Best Buy is using incorrect description in the title of the product. Shouldn't use the screen size as the misleading watch size since the bezel is larger.
