ANCOOL Compatible with Forerunner 245 Watch Bands 20mm Silicone Wristbands Replacement for Forerunner 245/645/Viomove HR/Vivoactive 3 Smartwatches

The little ring that holds the strap broke on the original Garmin band (it seems like this is a common occurrence) and so I had to replace the straps and came upon this highly reviewed straps. I love that the strap color is actually red vs more pink on the original straps. The quality so far seems pretty similar compared to the much more expensive Garmin straps and the Ancool straps come with two little rings so if one breaks, you dont need to hurry and buy a replacement. If you own a forerunner 645, these straps are definitely recommended. And you dont have to wait until yours break. You can get these if you want to switch out the colors every now and then.

Replaced my broken band with this one nearly felt identical to the factory one! Very easy to install.

Nice quality material seems as good as original. They is also extra pins to attach to the watch in case you swap out multiple times

This feels like the original Garmin Band. Solid Build. Pins are not going to come out. I really enjoy this band.

Couldnt be more happy with this watch band. It has a quality soft feel and is easily adjustable. I ordered the red band which looks great with my Forerunner 245.

Good quality!

Great wrist band is actually more comfortable than the original.

I have a 245 running watch. I have only used the watch band for a couple of weeks so this is still very new. Compared to the stock band from Garmin it is slightly shorter by a quarter of an inch. It is slightly less stretchy. The part of the band that is against your skin is more textured than the stock band. The color is vibrant, I have the light blue. Its been very humid here and I have had runs of 2+ hours with it and had no skin reactions and no discolorations on the band where it touches my wrist. It has not come unsecured from the watch. It doesnt feel cheap or like its going to fall apart.

Good looking color

I love this watch. It does everything I need and was looking for. And as far as I can judge it seems fairly accurate. Ive definitely learned a lot tracking my sleeping, body battery, stress, heart rate, etc.... The ONLY reason I didnt give it a full on 5 star rating is b/c of connectivity to my phone. If I put my phone down and get 20-30 feet away itll start a process of disconnecting and re-connecting repeatedly buzzing on my wrist, which is annoying but not such a big problem. Im sure I could probably just adjust the settings but Id rather have that connectivity and its only in that zone where it goes back and forth. Other than that Ive enjoyed what the watch offers me.
