Garmin Replacement Band,Forerunner 735XT,Black/Gray

the bands arent very durable: original torn easily in an accident; its replacement has cracked with normal use and needs a preemptive replacement. Im considering an alternate-brand replacement.

I opted for the Garmin replacement band instead of a less expensive replica. Just like most things Garmin, it is well made and as described. No issues at all.

Im very surprised to see such great reviews on this. I had mine for only a few months before the band started to break. After half a year, two of the little bars have broken, so the watch doesnt tighten around my wrist anymore. Bottom line, its not durable, so its way over priced.

Easy to fit

Arrived exactly as described, replaced it in no time.

Only lasted a little over a year before breaking.

These bands always break on me at least once a year, so I try to have an extra lying around. Not too cheap, but about as durable as the factory installed one and the material is comfortable as well.

This is a real good product!! Previously bought a band from another brand and was OK but the color and the firmness of the material wasnt as good as this one. Buy with confidence, this is exactly as the one your watch came with from the factory

Edit: The replacement order delivered the right band. I also noticed on the original packaging, the wrong band was in a bag with the right part#/description. Honestly, if this is my biggest complaint this year Im doing OK. The replacement band I received does not fit a 735XT. It came with instructions that picture a 735XT band, the right tools, but both bands appear to be for a different type Garmin. The photo on the product page is what I wanted, but got something different. Have to think someone pulled/labeled something wrong here. Ill try again and follow up.

This is my fourth band. For the amount of money you pay for this watch, the bands are very cheap and break easily. I guess they have to make their money somehow. Love the watch, dislike watch bands.
