Does the extra long watch band for the Descent MK1 PART NUMBER 010-12579-00 fit the Fenix 6X? I assume it will since both are 26mm QuickFit but want to double-check.

Yeah, that's why I asked, I should've mentioned that in my original question that the compatibility list does NOT show Fenix 5X or 6X as compatible.
Looking at the pictures, it seems that the MK1…
Exactly my use case, over the jacket while skiing. I haven't found a good option.
If the mk1 extended band goes on sale for $15 then I'll try it out haha.
I don’t have a tape measure handy while typing this post to measure my 6x but this will work over a jacket (not sure if it’s 3/4 or 1”) as this is what I use:
It does.

Looking at the pictures, it seems that the MK1 uses the same case as the Fenix 5X but it is impossible to say for sure based on the pictures Garmin uses on their website -- the linked picture is a render and not a photo, but it seems like the Fenix 6X should be compatible:
The Divers extension strap has the same quick fit connection as the stock Mk1 band and all the other 5x and 6x bands. It will be fine.
I have also thought about buying this band for my F6xPS. For wearing the normal band over a outdoor winter jacket, it is to small, but I thing the extra long band is much to large for this kind of use...

Absolutely I am using the Descent band on my 6x . Had similar thoughts about skiing.
I really don’t understand why Garmin offers a larger band only for the 20mm f6 models:

But the price is...
Just a question: does somebody know, if a 20mm band fits on a 26mm device? I am not talking about the optical look, just want to know if it fits on the bars...So maybe the large 20mm could be used during skiing worn about a thick ski/outdoor jacket with a Fenix 6x Pro/Solar?
Perhaps somebody has already tried it or has both models and can test it? Thanks.
