Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pretty convenient and wonderfully adjustable

Updates: The strap will become even more strong after a few months of daily wear. I noticed that they have now added another color that tempts me. There was a question about the length so I uploaded a picture of the distance between the parts of the velcro. ---------------------- -------------------- ------- -------------------- --------After After a long day of skiing down a lift, my wrist was badly injured because my Fenix6 bounced around a bit . I just couldn't find the right fit for such a rough activity with the standard harness (running was fine on the other hand). After looking for a more adjustable strap like the NATO strap I came across this one. There weren't many reviews and only one color, but I decided to give it a try. I've been wearing this watch with this bracelet almost continuously for several weeks now and I'm very happy with it. Pros: You can choose any color you want as long as it is black. I had no reaction to sweat or sparks like silicone bands. I can make them a little tighter or looser if needed. The plastic part you end up with cleans up nicely. my wrist. And, perhaps most importantly, it helps prevent the watch from hitting the bone of my wrist like an OEM strap. Almost Cons: The packaging is pretty flimsy, just a thin plastic bubble on top of some cardboard, but it's still thrown away/recycled, so ma'am. The instructions for winding the strap onto the original pins aren't very good to be honest, but the video on the ad page is pretty clear and makes it easy to work with. loose weave of fabric during outdoor activities like trail running, hiking, camping, or things like woodwork, but I was able to remove them all with little effort. Issues: Over time I wonder how well the velcro will hold up. Are things getting fluffy and no longer sticky? How long does the elastic nature last before it's just a ribbon of fabric? If the whole route fails, would that really be a problem? For €20 it was definitely worth the risk. I prefer the fenix6 and am glad I no longer have to use the original strap and strain my thin little wrists. I hope this continues and I hope there are more colors to come in the future.

Pros
  • -- Velcro design, neatly arranged hooks, small gap and strong grip, closer skin contact with tighter, it can even improve heart rate monitoring,
Cons
  • Only available in black color
