Fenix 7 Pro Aftermarket watchband question

Hello everyone
I just got a Fenix 7 Pro Solar to replace my trusted but failing Vivoactive 4, the watch is awesome but the watchband is driving me nuts. It's not even close in comfort to the UAG one I had on my Vivoactive 4.

Does anyone know where I can get somethin similar to this: https://www.urbanarmorgear.com/products/universal-active-watch-strap-fits-20mm-watch-lugs/ that would fit on my Fenix?

Thanks!

Nope, Garmin started to install non-removable springbars... At least in the regular 7's before, see forums.garmin.com/.../does-the-fenix-7s-have-removable-spring-pins

That makes it just that much harder to find something.

The stock watchband doesn't want to fit properly on my wrist, it's either way to loose or just to small and it's by far not as comfy as the UAG one.

You might go for an Garmin Ultrafit https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/pn/010-13306-10

Or Nick Manley Design does some pretty comfy ones. Just keep an eye on "fixed bar compatible"

They look nice! Do they rattle upon vibration?

I once had one aftermarket strap that had metal quick fit adaptors and started rattling nasty...

No, at least not for me.
Hemsut makes different straps. Somewhat more robust (stiffer) nylon straps, but also lightweight flexible nylon straps. Search the internet or Amazon for "Hemsut Garmin quickfit"

And of course note the connection width for your watch.

Awesome, that looks exactly like what I'm looking for.

Thanks a lot!

Strapsco has Garmin specific watch straps.
