> 3 dayCertainly works. That said removing and replacing the band (when putting on the longer band for diving) is harder than the factory band. Not a deal breaker but mildly annoying.

> 3 dayThis is a pretty good copy of the original Garmin band bathe watch came with. It fit perfectly on the watch and looks really good. It’s comfortable to wear although the material is not quite as soft as the original. All an all a great deal for less than half the price of a Garmin replacement.

> 3 dayThese aren’t as rigid as the original bands that come with the Garmin so I don’t exactly expect them to hold up as well but for the price they’re great! They’re flexible and rubbery and really comfortable. I’ve worn it every day for the past month and no complaints.

> 3 dayAnyone who gives this product a 5 star review has never had a truly nice watch. Any watchband that sells for $30 can not be better than 3 stars. I was going to give this 3 stars until my watch fell off my wrist during the extremely strenuous activity of pushing an empty shopping cart through the Costco TV isle... The 1 star review: Its garbage. It broke in just 30 days. I never used it during a strenuous activity. I would switch bands for anything rigorous. I have extra pins so I could put it back together if I wanted, but I simply dont trust it with a $300 dollar watch. The 3 star review: (if it didnt break) Build quality: Its cheap. For less than $30, I expected as much. The tolerances are very loose. Large visible gaps between links and a lot of lateral movement along the pins. It makes a lot of noise when you move it around. By comparison, my official Pebble Time Steel band has much tighter tolerances, far smaller gaps between links, and feels much sturdier. The Pebble Time Steel band also originally retailed for $99. And the Pebble Time Steel band feels cheap compared to my Citizen Eco-drives steel band. Dont under estimate the importance of a good watch band. Functionality: The quick connect works well. The closing mechanism works. It was easy to remove links. There are no micro adjustments (there are on the Garmin metal band). It really needs a half-sized link for better fit. It was too loose for my liking, but removing one more link would have made it too snug. Looks: Its a very shiny black and doesnt match the matte finish of the fēnix series very well. The end section that connects to the watch is very large and broad. Looks really out of scale next to the standard links. It also looks like its just a standard watchstrap attached to the quick connector. You might even be able to swap the band out for a different band. Then again, its the part that connects to the watch that looks the worst. Conclusion: dont buy a cheap steel watch band. It doesnt matter how many stars it has. Any decent one will cost at least $100 dollars. Remember this is an expensive watch you are entrusting to it. The only reason I bought this was to class up my fēnix 3 until I decided which smartwatch I wanted next. If your intention is to wear you fēnix as your daily driver buy the official Garmin strap, or look for higher end alternatives.

> 3 dayI have used this band for 2 weeks and I dont take off Garmin. It is shocking that it looks the same, no residue in notches or crevasses, and not scratches on buckle. I will be buying more. Its 3rd party and better than OEM! My original band fell apart in less than half a year but showed wear and tear after a week. Go and get one, you wont be sorry.
