1-st post.
Hi everyone!
So I'm in the process of buying my first Garmin device (Fenix 5x plus).
The dilemma about 5x+ and 5+:
I first bought Fenix 5+ Ti (which is still in a closed box). As the 5+ Ti was coming toward my way, I went to the local dealer and actually tried on both 5x+ and 5+. The 5+ watch face seemed so small and weird looking (only my opinion). So I tried on the 5x+ and to my surprise, it didn't look that big on my wrist (my wrist is 7 inches - 18cm), but that's only as it seemed to me.
So my dilemma about the two watches is- is the 5x+ gonna bebig (I've read online, that wrist size with 42mm watch should be around 7 inches and more, but 5x+ is 51mm), bulky (as if it is gonna be tossing around my wrist) and too heavy (it's 96g if I'm correct? My last sport watch was only 52g).
But I do like about 5x+ is the more rough look (only my opinion) and a huge battery life compared to 5+ Ti (like twice the size. What I like about the 5+ Ti is that it's lighter (76g if I recall right) and it might look more natural on my wrist (confused here about the wrist sizes on watches?).
My question about the leather wrist cuff:
Has anyone ever had any experiences with the leather wrist cuff? I really like the looks of having a leather wrist cuff watch
( here's a link, for somewhat reason the forum didn't let me upload it --> https://i.etsystatic.com/5173910/r/il/623703/475796512/il_fullxfull.475796512_1rqh.jpg ).
Has anyone had any experience with Garmin wrist-based heart rate monitor watches and leather wrist cuffs? Can it be done somehow with the Quick-fit system as well? If yes, can someone post some pictures, how it looks and a comment on how it feels and works (the HRM I mean)?
Thanks in advance!
