Garmin 010-12740-05 QuickFit 22 Watch Strap, Coyote Tan, Silicone, Accessory Strap for Fenix 5 Plus/Fenix 5

This purchase was a bit of a luxury. I wear the watch for work with a suit I wanted it to look a bit smarter than it does with the rubber strap and less like a sports watch. The strap in well engineered, and the slate grey colouring is a perfect match for the bezel on the Fenix 5 (non sapphire version). The strap comes up very large, and I had to remove five links with a watch link pin remover tool. Without this I'd have been making a trip to a local jewellers. The watch strap comes without instructions so I had to employ a best guess method to removing the pins and barrels. Should you have to remove links look on the back of the strap for the directional arrows and push the links out of the strap IN THE DIRECTION OF THE ARROWS. When you've done this you will need to reassemble, make sure the barrel pin is retained within the centre link, otherwise you'll get no tension when you reinsert the pin! If in doubt take it to a local watch shop and pay the small fee to do the job as it took me about 30 mins to complete, likely as they are experts that they will do it in 5 mins! Overall I'm very happy with the fit, colour match and construction of the strap. I do think it's overpriced even at Amazons offer price but it certainly makes the watch look more akin to its value. I'll be switching back to the rubber strap for events as it will be lighter and jog about less on the wrist. The quick release clasps means you can change over the strap in less than 10 seconds.

I brought this as a replacement strap for my Fenix 5 watch. The previous straps holder broke so I couldn’t keep the strap tidy when I wore it. I have looked around for a while at the cheaper non genuine Garmin straps but I came to the conclusion that I have a watch that costs a lot of money so why am I trying to save money on a strap I'll wear everyday, especially when the cheaper ones have a flaw where the clip to the watch can become undone without realising it. The black strap goes really well with the Fenix 5 and The build quality is top notch. The strap came with two torque screwdrivers which was a nice surprise and taking the old strap off and clicking the new one on took less than 20 seconds. The strap feels nice and comfortable and it’s great for working out. I don’t get any rash or it becoming uncomfortable when I wear it. Based on my past experience I can see this strap lasting an easy two years plus. The strap will fit a quick release Garmin 5 watch of 22mm width and will not fit the Garmin 5s or 5x. This is a genuine Garmin product and I would definitely recommend getting this rather than a £10 cheap strap for what is an expensive sports watch.

Not a lot to say really. It turned up the next day, fits my Garmin Forerunner 935 perfectly (and obviously the quick release attachments also) and seems sturdy enough. I changed to this quick release band so I can use the watch for triathlon, moving the watch itself from wrist to bike to wrist without any fuss and it seems to do the job well. It's my permanent watch strap now. Feels soft and comfortable enough when wearing it, maybe not as soft as original bands ( I bought tri bundle 935 with 2 bands) that came with watch for some strnge reason considering this is supposed to be a Garmin product also, but overall I have no complaints on comfort. Only reason(s) I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 (did think about giving it 3 stars for these reasons) was 1. It's advertised as "flame red", which to me would be a bright, bold red. It's not a bright, bold red. It's more like your old red T-shirt that you've had for a while and is a wee bit washed out now, but you still like it. And 2. When it arrived the box seemed to me as though it had been opened previously, like it may have been a return and was now sent to me. I even checked the strap against the straps on the Garmin web site. Admittedly they look the same and in fairness there were no marks on the strap itself to indicate it had been used before but the previously opened appearance of the box took the shine off the purchase. Overall I'm happy enough with the strap,but like most of the other reviewers I think the price is ridiculous. Still if it means the watch stays on my wrist instead of popping off a cheaper imitation strap somewhere out in the open water, I'll pay it.

One of the biggest incentives for buying the fenix 5 was the easily changeable straps. The stainless steel slate grey band goes very well with slate grey fenix 5. Note that the stand-alone sapphire fenix 5 has a black bezel and will not match this slate grey strap. I am using mine with my non-sapphire fenix 5. The strap comes with two torque screwdrivers if you are using the watch on the Forerunner 935. It is compatible with it, but I don't think it looks very good. I have attached picture to show the contrast if you are still interested. The strap is long and I had to remove a few links myself. This is a fairly simple process if you have the correct tool, or you can take it to a watch shop and they can do this for you. The strap itself is very well made. The clasp is very comfortable, but does add a little weight to the watch. This is not a big deal as I am noticing the watch for sporting activities when it has the stainless steel band, and in my opinion, adds some classic to the watch. Putting the strap on and taking it off is very quick; much quicker than my Apple Watch, in fact. Build-quality is top notch. I am very glad that I got this and would highly recommend it to other fenix 5 users who wear their watch outside of sports.

I bought this strap to go with my Fenix 5 which came with the standard black silicone strap. As this is an everyday watch as well as an activity monitor I wanted something with a bit more of a classic look for times I’m not doing anything particularly active! The strap comes well packaged and in a nice box as you’d expect at this price point. It is clearly made of strong material and is quite chunky and heavy, the weight it adds to the watch is very noticeable but this was a positive for me as it gives it a much more expensive feel. It’s easy to clip on and off the watch using Garmin’s QuickFit system, it literally takes a second so for me I tend to swap back to the silicone strap for more comfort before exercising. If there was one slight disappointment it was that the strap didn’t come with any tools to adjust the length which is a bit cheeky of Garmin with how much they charge for this strap. There are two small screwdriver type tools in the box but these seem to be for removing the pin where the watch itself meets the strap – as the strap is attached with the QuickFit latch that seems to be a redundant tool to me. As it comes it was far too large for my wrist so I had to buy another tool to allow me to take links out of the strap, this was very cheap and easy to do so no real harm done. Overall I have given this five stars on the basis that the strap itself is exactly what I expected and having worn it every day for several weeks now it still looks good as new and doesn’t seem to scratch or scuff very easily at all. I know that this is an expensive strap and I know that there are cheaper unbranded ones now coming onto the market but I believe that you get what you pay for and for me this was worth the money so I would recommend it.

Strap is very soft and feels high quality. For a guy with tiny wrist, this is more than amazing - I still have 3/4 more holes left on the strap when I fasten it. What's more, the colours matches the Seiko Tuna "green scallop" perfectly. The blue is tad lighter than the shroud but on the wrist looks harmonious. The original spring bar is about 1/3mm too big for the strap end however because of the synthetic materials used to construct the quick release feature, with a little force the spring bars will sink in very snuggly. 10/10 would recommend any tuna owner to get one. The overall fit is surprisingly well.

Appalling quality. Strap has delaminated after just one month's wear. It's not that I have done anything energetic whilst wearing the strap (I have a silicone strap for that) just wearing it at my desk. Now it's out lf the return period. Wish I'd bought one of the after market straps instead!

Too much money for a band that doesn’t look that good. And that comes from a lot of people I asked their opinion. I am still wearing the same rubber band my watch it came with

La correa de titanio original de Garmin es única, en color y diseño un poco pesada pero casi nada

Everything was perfect with the order, exactly what it was described. Very happy with the watch and the extra band. A+++ !!!

Das Garmin Edelstahl-Armband-22mm Quickfit-Wechselarmband in Schiefergrau kommt in einem schicken Pappschächtelchen zusammen mit Werkzeug, mit dem ich leider nicht allzuviel anfangen konnte. Ein Stiftausdrücker wäre als Beigabe sicher sinnvoller gewesen, denn das Armband ist ziemlich lang. Wenn man es nicht selber kürzen kann oder will, kann man damit zum Uhrmacher seines Vertrauens gehen, das ist keine große Sache. Der Wechsel des Armbandes ist dank QuickFit schnell erledigt. Die Faltschließe öffnet sich auf Knopfdruck, bleibt aber in einem Stück, muss also über die Hand gezogen werden. Das Armband habe ich mir zu meiner Fenix 5 Plus bestellt. Diese ist schwarz, farblich also nicht exakt passend; der Unterschied fällt aber kaum auf. Das Armband ist leider recht teuer, wertet die Uhr allerdings optisch auch deutlich auf. Auch das Tragegefühl ist wesentlich angenehmer als mit Silikon. Beides sind natürlich rein subjektive Eindrücke. Auf alle Fälle ist die Uhr damit bürotauglich, das Armband ist aber auch bei leichteren sportlichen Betätigungen geeignet. Bei schwereren möglicherweise auch, aber dafür bin ich nicht geeignet. Alles in allem eine schicke Sache, aber einen Stern ziehe ich für das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis ab (beim aktuellen Preis von 160€). Fairerweise sollte man erwähnen, dass es auch günstigere Produkte von Drittanbietern gibt; ich habe davon abgesehen, da der potentielle Schaden doch recht hoch wäre.

Very easy to attach and detach, just the color a little pale , but great feeling, the lock is matted black , not applicable to scratch

Ottimo prodotto. Acquistato per sostituire l'originale che dopo un periodo di onorato servizio non ce l'ha più fatta!
