Strap for driver

Hello,

I bought the marq driver about a month ago. In the very beginning I was very excited about the new silicon-titanium bracelet, however after using it couple of weeks in the very hot, here, summer, I drop it for the rubber one as I felt uncomfortable and always sweat under the bracelet. So I use the black rubber strap atm, as I bought a green rubber strap but didn't like the gap the leaves between the watch and the strap. So now I am after a quality strap with the quick release to look like image below, so it won't leave a gap, like fenix. Any help would be appreciated.

I bought two rubber straps from Fenix 5 Plus and pre ordered the blue Nylon from Jura watches which I''m suppose to get next week.

Hey thanks. I was thinking to buy Captain's strap nylon from a local shop. But they don't open it to try as I have to buy it to open the package. Would it look nice? I can't find any pictures.

Hi,

would you have a link to the jura nylon strap?

is it compatible with QuickFit?

thanks!

Yes, I believe it is the factory strap for the Captain. I have an Expedition btw. Here is the link from Garmin, https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/US/p/pn/010-12738-02 (which is not available). For Jura you will have to call with the part number to order. I preordered like a month ago.

Thanks a lot! I will email them (I think the easily changeable straps is a very strong point (actually the only real forte of an apple watch), but it’s a pity garmin doesn’t make these available easily)

BTW, is it possible to order straps from the Garmin US store if you are located outside of the US?

0 Gustco over 5 years ago in reply to claude512

Actually funny, I'm in the US and bought my Expedition from Jura watches, which was preordered and got the first week of May. I preordered the strap a month ago. When it comes to the Marq series there is no US vendor to order from. The Garmin website says 5 to 8 weeks on most straps, specifically those that are the factory defaults for the Marq series. Go with Jura Watches and you will be fine, remember you will still probably have to wait.

What about this one?

That one is the same one as the Captain but in black, I am buying one this coming week, waiting for my local store to have it in stock.

I know it might fill the gap but that strap looks super super nice! and is made of nylon so it should be perfect for hot days :) I am in Miami so I feel your pain hehehe.

Waiting is fine, I have the watch in any case :-) thanks a lot for your help!
