Longer bands.. 9 inch wrist

Former Member over 6 years ago

anyone have an idea where I can find longer bands for the 5X Plus? I have 9 inch wrists and while the strap that fits but I’m on the very end and can barely tuck the holder on.

I have checked amazon and no luck. They are all same length or close to stock.

any help would be appreciated.

Thanka

Look for a nylon strap. I remember they came standard with the Fenix 1 or 2 and are meant to wear over your ski jacket. Surely they must be available for 5x plus. Good luck!

I purchased an inexpensive watch band and then attached it to the band on my Fenix 5X Plus using Velcro One-Wrap. The One-Wrap attaches to itself, allowing it to be wrapped around things and hold them together. I have found the strength of the Velcro connection between the two straps to be quite strong and have had no problems with it.

The URL for the watch band is below:

Attached is a picture of how I used the One-Wrap
