Much better design.

EDIT: 10/15/2019 Less than two weeks after installation, the bracelet is not holding up very well. The two sets of screws that attach the quick-release buckles to the end of the strap are already rusted and there are traces of paint on the inside where the ends of the buckles meet the strap. Photos are attached. Considering the time and money spent trying to find 'more reasonable' alternatives to Garmin quick release straps at a 'more reasonable' price, I would be ahead of the curve by simply buying a Garmin strap , even at its ridiculous price . September 30, 2019 Can't. Rate or comment on the durability as I just put the strap on the watch. I have just updated a stainless steel bracelet bought at auction not more than 2 weeks ago and this bracelet has a much better linkage system with a standard spring loaded watch. Pins versus an interference fit on a stainless steel strip that has only been found to be suitable or out of specification for a few applications. And it offers a better fit with two half links, so I was able to set it to a much better length than the SS version, which I set pretty tight to keep good contact with the HR and OX sensors. The SS version fitted to the shorter strap still weighed 96 grams versus the 64 grams of this Ti strap. The clasp design of this version of the LDFAS titanium bracelet is also slimmer than the SS version, but the other LDFAS Ti bracelet is almost the same design as the SS version I upgraded from.

Pros
  • Material: Titanium Metal 97%, Stainless Steel 3%
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
