Hello
one of the Pins came out and fired across the room as I was horsing around with my children. I have fired a request off to support. I just wondered if anyone found replacement online.
Thanks

If you want to get them from Garmin, they are: Spring Bar, 2.3mm OD, 22mm Installed Span. Part # S00-01356-00
Don't use the Barton pins (they are called spring bars)--the Barton ones are 1.8mm thick while the fenix ones are 2.3mm thick. I had the Barton spring bars and they wobble on my fenix. I bought replacement…
Sorry to hear. I was able to place my order within 2 days from when I contacted Garmin US.
Just make sure you order 2.3mm thick ones or they will not fit correctly
Right here: Barton Watch Pins - https://amzn.to/2r4Xyzi (18-24mm - the Fenix 6s/Pro uses 20mm)

I bought replacement spring bars directly from Garmin. Just contact their support and they should place an order for you. They are also cheaper at $2 per pair
Yes, the normal spring bars.. this is the case. But, not these.
You see, I wanted to use some of my regular bands from my old FR245 when I upgraded to my new 6s. I found this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5anKN4sZjeY and found that link below. I ordered them, and they are a perfect fit with no slop at all.
They are IDENTICAL to the stock pins. The girl in the video also shows how they fit vs. the standard pins that are common on the smaller watches (such as the FR345 etc). Take a look and see what you think.
;-)
I have connected support in Germany. Not impressed with them for another case. I will see how this goes.
I have ordered a couple of thicker one to see if it works while I wait for support.
They might work with the 6s, but they DO NOT work with the regular 6 with the 22mm spring bars, which the OP is asking about. I bought these exact ones you linked and they are too thin for my 6 sapphire. They are NOT IDENTICAL to the stock 22mm spring bars on the fenix 6

Ah, maybe for the 6 its different. Sorry to hear. For me, and the 6s (as the video showed) it worked perfect. She gave the other sizes for the other watches too.. so, I am surprised they did not work for you, unless they sent you the incorrect bar.
Yeah, I have also seen that video before which prompted me to buy the Barton ones. But unfortunately, the 22mm ones are different and I had to find out the hard way
Been playing with a lot of 22mm springbars even thick one from Seiko and even Odie21 knows how many bands and bracelet I have tested and displayed on the Watchuseek forums...
But the best are Garmin's as their "heads" need to be large enough to avoid any movement in the socket.
So, yes, ask Garmin. :-)
