Quick release straps

Former Member over 7 years ago

fancy trying some different colour straps and was wondering if anyone had tried the ones from a well know auction site and if they are any good?

Been wearing a chinese knockoff from amazon for about 8 months now. Actually it's showed less wear than the stock garmin one that the watch came with and functionally it's identical

I have also some of these straps (and even a cheap metall one) in use with my 5x without any problems.

Thanks for the replies, ordered it up and it has just turned up. I have to say I’m very impressed with it think I’ll order a few different colours

I have just about every color and they all work great: http://myitforum.com/myitforumwp/2017/07/21/review-third-party-quickfit-band-for-garmin-fenix-3-hr-and-5x/

How wearing the metal strap impacts optical HR? I am thinking about getting metal strap, but I am afraid that wearing the watch loosely will impact HR monitoring...
