my 26mm hook strap just arrived today and it is awesome. Feels like a new watch it’s so comfortable compared to the Garmin Nylon Band. Thanks to Nick, Great Work!

Then he has decided to propose a 26mm strap for the owner of 5X, 6X and Tactix...
And here they are. :-)

Not yet. Parts are not even in hand at the moment.

The green strap and Titanium F6 looks fantastic. Wish I had the Ti version. Can we get some more pictures of people with other colour straps on the black F6? I want to order some more straps!

Today I almost lost my watch, I was carrying a lot of stuff, that also touched my wrist with the watch occasionally.

Cause of the stretchy nature of the strap it was able to compress the pin where its attached to the watch and it fell out (would really prefer a more secure pin system).

So my watch fell on the floor and someone told me, but the pin is gone.

Well mine is now in London but customs are asking for £6 VAT and £8 service charge! Did you have to pay this?

Yup afraid so!

Use the Garmin springbars. They are much thicker. I don't use Nick's springbars. :-)

Yes ! In fact I love all the three and it is hard for me to choose... :-D
The grey case of the titanium makes the quest for band colors fun ! :-)
Grey a cold colors, works best with warm colors ....

I'm talking about the Garnin ones, Nicks didn't fit. And probably come off more easy because of their hook mechanism.
