The original strap that came with the watch broke (after a couple of years of use). I could have kept wearing it but the price of the replacement strap was reasonable so I went ahead and ordered the black replacement strap. Removing the old strap required using needle nose pliers and something thin and sharp to pry the straps out of the holes. [Note: If you've ever wanted a pocket watch, remove the strap from the Forerunner 10 and use the watch as a pocket watch]. After the old tape was removed, I installed the new tape using the tool that came with the tape. The only problem with the attachment is that the ends of the pins on both pieces of tape are sticking out of the hole they go in. Nothing serious, just couldn't fully insert them. Worn for a few days to ensure the tape doesn't come loose. Everything was in order. highlighted.
