Show me your Fenix 5 Plus!

Former Member over 7 years ago

I'm having hard time to decide which Fenix 5 Plus to buy.
I have smaller wrists and was thinking about black 5S Plus, but i like the design of 5 Plus more. And if i go with 5, i'm not sure about black vs. titanium (silver bezel). I can't see all models in person here so i would be really happy to see your models.

Post photos of your Fenix 5S, 5 Plus. I'd also like to see any other strap choice.

Can you post images of black leather strap? really hard to find on the web.... :)

Sure, here you go. It is fairly plain and is nice and thick. For my wrist I really need to work it to get to the hole that ensures a snug fit. First couple of times wearing it was a bit uncomfortable but it has started to stretch and fit my wrist. When I work out though I wear the black silicone one just to save on cleaning.ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1385499.jpg

What colour of blue is that? i really want to get a blue strap and am waiting for the Cyan Blue one. https://buy.garmin.com/en-CA/CA/p/pn/010-12740-03

The Cirrus Blue looks more green. Ideally I want the blue that comes with the Quatix 5.

Is that the Titanium or Silver?
Trying to decide if the grey sides match a black band in real life. The sides look very grey in the display pics compared to your watch.

Can't seem to get past the Captcha verification!

Color is "Blue". Brand is Ancool off Amazon.

I will add that although the Ancool bands are silicon, they are NOT lint magnets like the cheap silicon bands I've bought for the Apple Watch. I also bought the Army Green Ancool band, and I would HATE the band if the darker color gathered lint. They simply do not.

It is the titanium that came with orange band in first pics. Sides are definitely a dark grey and not as black as the black band. I have the black band from my Fenix 5, and it is darker, but not so much that I won't wear it with the F5+.

Edited to add pics to help. Sunlight pic shows differences in grey and black. Indoor pic shows how most of the time they work fine together. And one final pic with yellow Ancool band worn today for 4 mile run and after.

Thanks! Looks great. I especially love the blue.

I wonder how the silver metal band would look?

It's funny how dark it look with the colored bands and much more grey with the black band. Contrast is funny.
