Review on ๐Ÿ“Œ Abanen Quick Dry Hook and Loop Watch Band for Garmin Fenix 6X / Fenix 5X, 26mm Ultralight Woven Nylon Sport Wristband Strap for Fenix 6X Pro/Sapphire, Fenix 5X/5X Plus, Enduro, Tactix Delta by Brian Douglas

Much better than LFAS watch band and much cheaper than Garmin watch band.

I've only been using the watch strap since 17/11/21 but so far this is my favorite strap. I like that the end can wrap around my wrist enough that it's less likely to make contact with the surface I'm resting my wrist on. But people with larger wrists than me, 7 inches (178mm), may have to partially remove the strap to get it off the wrist. That means you have to pull on the velcro straps. several times between the very narrow gap of the watch pin and the watch case. Which could potentially cause the velcro tabs to tear off. As it is, with a minimal hanging end of the strap (see picture), it is a bit of a hassle to take the watch off. I have to place the watch on the underside of my wrist and then "push" it very gently. I just noticed a review where a reviewer "squeezed" the plastic end of the strap through the gap between the watch pin and the watch case. DO NOT DO THAT! It is NOT how it should be installed! If necessary, watch the video. Reapply if necessary. A NOTICE. I probably won't be able to post a follow-up review as Revain blocks that opportunity. And without even publishing the original reviews I submitted, although I get emails that the reviews have been accepted. Another reason to be very skeptical about Revain reviews.
