My Vivoactive 5 watch wristband gives me a rash! I would like to wear it at night while I'm sleeping, but if I keep it on too long, i develop an itchy, flaky, and painful rash on my wrist.
What gives? Should I start a class action lawsuit?

We are sorry to hear about the issue you are reporting. The skin irritation may be a result of build-up on the watch band…
I can’t seem to paste a link to the original thread (?!), but just search for “Skin rash” in the Forerunner 645/645 Music sub-topic
I tried many things but the skin rash continued. I reluctantly bought a nylon strap online. My skin cleared up from day one with the new strap. £10 to sort a problem that was bugging me. Worth it.
I am experiencing skin rash and irritation in my hands from the vivoactive band, any ideas how to solve or overcome this issue.
Any recommended bands to replace.
