Verdict: nothing you’d notice between them
On the makers’ published figures, neither the Google Pixel Watch 5 41mm nor the Google Pixel Watch 5 45mm wins a row by a gap you would notice. 2 gaps are borderline, differences most people would not notice: weight (case only) (31 g against 36.7 g) for the Google Pixel Watch 5 41mm and battery life (maker's claim) (40 h against 30 h) for the Google Pixel Watch 5 45mm. The difference in charge to 80% is below the threshold you would notice. Both state the same peak brightness. The other 25 rows have no threshold or no direction to judge by, so nobody wins them.

Specifications
A win is marked only where the figures can be ranked and the gap is one you could notice on the wrist. A row the site has no threshold for says whether the two differ, and that it is not ranking them. = marks the same figure on both, ≠ not ranked a difference with no ranking. Every figure carries its source.
