Garmin Quickfit Watch Band, Vented Titanium Bracelet, 26mm

Very good quality, but not i couldn't get used to the metal band

Honestly, maybe its not the best to say this out loud on Amazon but truth be told I was probably less than 50/50 on returning BEFORE ordering. I saw this and even made a joke to a garmin support rep I work with about the pricing on these. Well, silicone bands ALWAYS give me that itchy rash, Garmin ones FAR worse than cheap knockoffs I trust LESS as I have ripped them. I bought a nylon band and loved it. FAR less irritation and even looked pretty good. The downside is it stays wet when you wash hands etc.I started looking up nice bands for my wedding actually. Saw a few bad reviews of knock off "titanium" bands for 15-50 bucks and none really stood out to me. Scratching easily, and their weight were common complaints.I said screw it and bought this Garmin band. Wow. Loved it the moment I got it, more when I self adjusted it and made it fit 8/10 of desired tightness. After getting home from my honeymoon I got the punch pin and did the microadjustment the clasp offered and now, this thing is PERFECT. None of the adjustments are hard. I'm an IT guy so I'm handy but I've never adjusted a watch in my life.If you spent the money on an epix, I can assume you probably can afford this. I know it sucks spending a portion of the watch price on a band but ... do it now. I will proudly wear this at the office, at clients, at dinners, all with my favorite smartwatch the epix 2 pro.

Just got this in the mail. It was definitely on the pricey side but I'm very happy with the fit and finish. You can't beat a quality product straight from Garmin.

I purchased this used from the Amazon Renewed store. Like everyone says; the titanium band is very comfortable and looks gorgeous.PACKAGING : Original opened boxWHAT’s IN THE BOX: TITANIUM Band, extra link, pin removal toolCONDITION: Very minor scratches on clasp. Zero scratches on band.THE BAD: Some pin heads were worn and took extra care to remove. This pins for this band are threaded flathead screws and cannot be knocked out with a hammer tool. So care must be taken when applying a screwdriver to the heads.

I like the band and while it may be priced a little high, I'd rather have this band made by the manufacturer than a cheaper/less expensive after-market band that may or may not fit the watch properly. I trust Garmin to make a band that is durable and will hold my very nice Fenix 6 Sapphire, securely.I almost didn't buy the band because of a review that mentioned 'not worth the money'. I disagree. I'm glad I bought the band because it is very comfortable, and looks great. It's worth the $100. Band is fairly stiff, out of the box. I'm sure it'll loosen a bit with wear; the band is not flimsy at all, but quite substantial.The band moves comfortably over my skin, unlike the 'stock' silicone band which is 'grabby'. I don't like how the silicone band grabs onto my skin. This nylon band sits nicely against my wrist.Changing the bands is super easy and hassle free. Just click and go, basically. Loving Garmin!

This $300 band is nice. It looks to be made of titanium (it’s non magnetic, it’s all I could verify). Since this is an official Garmin product, I’ll take their word for it.Packaging:The Garmin watch box was sealed by 2 clear pieces of tape. All of the watches I purchased the, fenix 6 and 7 had boxes that were sealed with the same type of clear tape. The Garmin watch box was no different. The band is made in China as indicated on the box.Contents:Included in the box is a small screwdriver and the watch band.Shortening the band:It was easy to remove links to shorten the band. The included screwdriver made removing the links really easy. Everything was straight forward.Band:The color of the band matched my carbon gray fenix 7 exactly. It has a nice dark gray matte finish. The links are thick. The thing that stood out the most to me was the clasp. It has large buttons and locks with authority. It’s not coming off your wrist unless you unlock it. The edge of the band has a nice bevel to it.The beveled edges are lighter than the middle of the watch that’s not from a reflection.The $300 question:Is it worth the three hundred dollar price tag? If you are OCD and can’t stand mismatched things then it might be worth it to you. Believe me, I spent hours looking around for a band that matches the watch. This was the only option I found. Everything else out there is black. You may be better off getting the black color watch and select from a multitude of nice black metal bands at a fraction of the cost. It’s not like there is a huge difference between the carbon gray and black fenix watches. There isn’t. People aren’t going to say, “nice carbon gray color…” because they really won’t be able to tell.Let’s face it, any other “quality” band can do the same job for much, much less. If you’re not OCD, skip this band and get a nice band and pocket the $250. If you are OCD, then bite the bullet and get this band. It is a nice band.Picture #1:Left to right: Fenix 7 solar/sapphire, carbon gray with carbon gray titanium vented band; Fenix 6 pro, black with black silicone band. The picture is very close to how the colors are in real life. Yes, the Fenix 7 screen is slightly larger than the Fenix 6 screen…news to me. You cannot use a “6” screen protector on a “7” even though they are spec’d at the same size.Note: The locking clasp still has the plastic film on it. I did not remove it yet. The word “Garmin” is laser etched on the clasp.Carbon gray is a very hard color to photograph. The lighting has to be just right so you photograph the actual color and not just a reflection of the light mixed with the color.I hope this helps. .

I have the Fenix 8 carbon Gray DLC AMOLED Sapphire 47mm watch. This band completes this watch in my opinion, the look, feel, & fit is exactly what I wanted. It’s pricey, but what’s a few more $$$ at this point if you have this watch. YOLO

Love the quality of this leather!!!
