That’s why Google created the Pixel Watch 3 in two different sizes – 41mm and the new 45mm – with everyone in mind. 

Choosing the Pixel Watch 3 size that’s right for you is a matter of preference and fit. Both feature the all-new Actua display, which has a larger active screen – over 10% on the 41mm and a whopping 40% on the 45mm – than the Pixel Watch 2. The Actua display is also two times brighter (2000 nits vs. 1000 nits on the second gen watch), making it easy to glance at your stats and info, even when you’re out in bright daylight. 

If you prefer a larger display and case size, the 45mm Pixel Watch 3 is a great choice. It comes in 3 colors: Obsidian, Porcelain, and the new Hazel with a matte aluminum case. 

If you prefer a smaller and slightly lighter case size, then the 41mm Pixel Watch 3 is for you. It comes in a new Rose Quartz color.

There’s plenty of room for customization, too. The Pixel Watch 3 has a wide assortment of bands that are comfortable, durable, and stylish, including waterproof options. The bands are easy to swap out, so you don’t have to pick just one. Move from working out to going out with versatile band types like Active Sport, Woven, leathers, and metals.^4,5

Both Google Pixel Watch sizes were designed with everyone in mind. Knowing the circumference of your wrist can help you decide which size is right for you. Here’s a simple way to measure. 

1. Wrap a tape measure around your wrist just above the bone. 

   • Don’t have a tape measure? Take a piece of string and wrap it around your wrist. 

2. Make sure that the fit is snug, but still comfortable. 

3. Mark where the tape measure or string lands. 

   • If you’re using a string, place it flat on a surface and measure the distance from the end of the string to the marking using a ruler.

4. See how your wrist size matches up with both Pixel watch sizes.

   • The 45mm fits wrists 150–215 mm around. The 41mm fits wrists 130–210 mm around.

Having the right fit isn’t just a matter of comfort – it’s key to making sure the device’s sensors can properly collect data.

• When wearing your Pixel Watch, make sure your band isn’t too tight. 

• Wear the band loose enough that it can move back and forth on your wrist.

• To get a more secure fit when you exercise and ensure optimal data collection, try moving the band two to three finger widths above your wrist bone. You can lower and loosen the band after your workout is over.
