Titanium Watch Band

I'm looking at getting the titanium watch band to dress my Fenix 8 when around town and not doing activities. I was wondering how the wrist based HRM worked with the titanium watch band and if the band required a lot of adjustment. Also, if I were to use the band while doing a walking activity, how well does the HRM work.

My plan is switch back to the silicone band when cycling or doing other strenuous activities.

Thx

    HRM quality depends on how tight you put the band on.
    You normally adjust that style of bands only once, at the beginning.
    I got mine for Fenix 2 (I think, its already Quickfit) and am still using it, mostly on more casual dates. When I walk, oHRM is working well enough for me but I tend to change it for a nylon/felcro one for sleeping.

    The genuine Garmin is comfortable and does not interfere with anything. It is comfortable to sleep with too. I try to keep it for dress occasions as I don't want to beat it up with day-to-day life.

    I just got a Titanium Carbon Gray DLC Bracelet today for my Fenix 8 51mm and it is very comfortable, I had to remove 5 links. Feels lighter than the silicone bands. Also, it comes with a screwdriver to adjust the links.

    Everything works as expected, it's a watch band :)
