Bad quality on the QuickFit? 26 Watch Bands, Flame Red Silicone

Great quality control and good materials. On the left a new band (red flame). On the right a band with 3 months of use (orange flame ). I have not used soaps. Only 10 swimming activities at sea. I wash my watch with fresh water after each activity

    If it is normal, the quality of the materials are really really bad
  • Thank you for contacting Garmin Iberia. We inform you that after observing the photographs, we can see that it is a very normal wear and tear, since the exposure to the sun and of the use, can lose part of the coloration. Thank you.

    I am surprised that some branches provide new band and some not. I bought original garmin metal band, it is very convenient event for sport activities and I am happy, although cost 130 eur, it worth in my opinion.
