Frustrating timepiece

I can't see the time without tapping the watch face. I want to see the time when I just look at the watch face. The watch does not respond to wrist twisting, lifting, etc.
I upgraded from a Lily a couple months ago so I was familiar with the bulk of features. I like being able to use Garmin Pay which wasn't available on the earlier version. The look is fantastic and fits my small wrist well.
I previously only had apple watches and made the switch to a Lily 2. It visually looks very good and battery life lasts much longer compared to apple. This band has not caused any irritation and I like the stats it gives for sleeping and other daily functions. can be a little hard to navigate swiping between screens but overall looks sleek and does just what I need.
This is a nice fitness tracker. I appreciate the accuracy and surprisingly find the additional tracking data useful. I was looking for something that wasn't overly large or that screamed fitness tracker, especially since I am wearing it all the time. I do wish that the bands were longer. Since the device cannot be worn at the wrist, using wrist sizing misses the mark. I have an average size wrist and had to buy a new band because the one that came with the device is too short to be worn comfortably. I also find the activity tracking to be way too obsessive. I want to focus on the activity, not on constantly stopping to change up settings. As an example, it's set up so that I can't simply track my yoga practice, I have to stop and start the device for each pose. That is ridiculous in my opinion.
I have had the watch a couple of months, having trouble accessing the features, not sure what I am doing wrong. Once I figure it out, I am sure I will love it.
I got my Lily@ 2Classic s couple weeks ago. Sorta wish a picked a different face and color, and possibly two hands, one for outside and kayalking and one for casual. I'm learning how to works and have made an adjustments or eliminations. How can one get a different frame or band for an existing purphase?

I purchased this to replace my VivoSmart4. I love the fact that it is smaller than any watch/tracker I have seen. I love the size, convenience and programs available. My only complaint - and it isn't really a complaint is that the vibrate portion is very tinny sounding and feeling.
