After Market Bands and Bracelets ?

the F6 with its 22mm spring bars gives a lot of opportunity to try and change the bands and bracelets.
Garmin propose a lot of option already but by searching in my old watchbox I was able to recycle some 22mm bands.
It is very easy to exchange them and many options in terms of comfort or look are available.

Also as the Titanium F6 got a very "grey" case, finding the perfect match is not that easy as there is, well you know, fifty shades...


The leather band provided for the Peeble as a kickstarter project by Richard Tracy is easy to find and one of my favorite.



For a shaken not stirred James Bond's look, I was able to find a two piece zulu band and add the original Garmin buckle.


For a solid diver's look, this good old Seiko band got "shoulders" like the leather Richard Tracy and give a wider feel to the F6. The buckle is also recycling from a 20mm leather band.


My favorite so far is a 50 dollars Chinese titanium band. I have posted a thread about it already.


A cheap grey Nylon which turns to be more bronze than silver.



For a NASA look, the Nick Mankey's Hook Strap is one of the most confortable ever done.


another Nick Mankey's  Army Green this time.


Another elastic Nick's Mankey but in black with silver hardware. 


This one come from Sweden from "CheapZuluStraps".




And of course this is the X Wing Fighter OEM band sold with the watch.

Edit of the 17th of January 2020:
I have bought an OEM Titanium bracelet.

The Yellowdog Watchstrap Rubber Zulu 3 rings made by Alex Moss. Ultra confortable, easy to dry and highly secured.
I have added a black keeper for good measure.

Alex Moss from YellowDog Straps has adapted some 22mm Maratac titanium rings on his famous Zulu rubber.
First, I had to order a Maratac band in the US. Have it sent to UK directly to Alex. And there it is on my wrist.
It weights only 15 grams against 26 grams for the steel version I had purchase last year.
It is a very very confortable band as it gently adjust to your wrist through the day.
The absence or real thickness inside the wrist also is noticeable and very pleasant when typing.
Total weight: 60 grams !!!


Edit: 8 septembre 2022..... Here is a 22mm wide tactical nylon. It has been a long wait on this one. Found on Amazon.
