WHY DIDN'T I FIND THIS SOONER!!
Pros: comfortable, durable
Cons: none
Love this strap! It's comfortable, doesn't slide around, and most of all durable! I've been through 3 of the original straps in less than 2 years. This will definitely last a lot longer!

EXCELLENT SERVICE
Pros: comfortable
Cons: none
i have been looking for this for a long time. Comfortable, comfortable, comfortable. i hope it lasts longer than the plastic straps.
Garmin.com won't ship to Canada and Garmin support did not bother returning my email neither. BUT GPSCITY got it to me within 36 hours. Amazing service and prices.
Thank you.

LOVE THE STRAP!
Pros: perfect fit everytime
Cons: none
This helps so much! Just love the strap!
The original strap was ok - I liked the secure little tab at the end, but that also made it hard to put on/take off. Plus I couldn't really get a good fit - it was either a little to loose or a litle or tight. With this wrist strap - it's a perfect fit everytime!
Easy to install (there's a you-tube video you can also use for installation instructions) but it was even easier than the video made it seem.
I rinse the strap after every run - so far no funky smells. But if it ever does - I will have no problem purchasing another one of these - JUST LOVE IT!!!
And I have to thank Expressmounts.com for a great shipping rate and fast shipping!

GREAT WRIST STRAP
I bought this to replace the original strap on my garmin when it broke. It had great reviews for women with small wrists. I love it. It is so much more comfortable and now my garmin fits perfect. No more moving around on my wrist.

GREAT REPLACEMENT BAND
I bought this replacement band for my Garmin Forerunner 405 strap (green), that had broken at the buckle. With instructions I found on YouTube produced by Garmin, I was able to put the new strap on the origial watch body without my husband's help. And I love this one SO MUCH BETTER! It fits my wrist,and is easy to get off and on and is better under a long sleeve top or a jacket. I have a small wrist and always believed that the original Garmin strap never held it's position very well. This the replacement band cinches down tighter. REALLY AM PLEASED! Garmin ought to just include this band as an option when purchasing the 405.

GREAT WRIST STRAP
Pros: extremely comfortable easy to adust and use.
I wish the rubber wrist strap on my Garmin 405 had broken earlier - I like this much better. It's more comfortable on the wrist and I can get an exact fit. Not too tight or too loose like with the original. Garmin really needs to start putting this on their new products instead of selling it as a replacement part. It was very easy to switch out the old one and install this strap.

BETTER THAN ORIGINAL
I have very small wrists and found the original wristband to be uncomfortable. This new wrist strap has been wonderful! It fits my wrist easily and is so comfortable! I had a hard time getting it on the new watch, but my husband took over and did it easily. I recommend this strap to anyone, especially runners with smaller wrists!

GARMIN 405 WRIST STRAP KIT
Pros: great fit, comfy
I love my Garmin 405 but I have really small wrists & the watch is HUGE. I can't believe I waited almost a year to get the wrist strap - it is SUCH an improvement. The strap that comes with the Garmin is difficult to do up, and when I get sweaty it moves all over my wrist, I was constantly adjusting it. The new velcro strap is so much easier to put on, & adjust, and never moves - I forget my Garmin is even on. I also found the Youtube video helpful in the installation.

GARMIN FORERUNNER 405 FABRIC STRAP INTERFACE WRIST
I like this strap much better than the original strap that came with the 405. It was a little difficult to attach but nothing terribly complicated. Pros: It fits smaller wrists better because the velcro is easier to adjust. Cons: The band takes a while to dry off if you've been out in the rain or are sweating.

GARMIN FORERUNNER 405 WRIST STRAP KIT
This strip kit is the best thing I have purchesed in a while. The hard, unadjustable strap that came with the 405 hurt my wrists within the first use. It didn't adjust well to the size of my wrists. The velcro, adjustable straps are easy to adjust, fit well and are comfortable. I would recommend this to anyone that purchases the 405. I am in the Marine Corps and training for a marathon and there's nothing better than having a good piece of gear for training that doesn't bother you.

GREAT PURCHASE
Pros: easy to adjust, very comfortable and secure
Cons: none
This wrist strap has made my 405 even better. I am in the military and do cross-fit workouts 3 times a week. I was having to take the watch off every time I did flutter kicks because the pins in the original wrist strap kept comming off. Several times I would start another run and the watch would be on the ground where I was just exercising. Because I was afraid I would lose the watch I started having to take it off and just carry it. Not anymore! With this new strap I have had no problems like this at all. Now I am able to keep the watch on worry free! I have recommended this wrist strap to all my buddies who also have a 405. Truly a great product.

405 FORERUNNER WRIST STRAP KIT
Great for replacing a broken strap on the 405. Comes with 2 size straps, one for larger wrists and one for smaller wrists. The small strap is for very small wrist, it's about the size of my 10 year old sons wrist. Completly replaces original straps with easy to follow instructions.
