REPLACEMENT BAND

gpscity.com was wonderful as we would have ended up with 3 of these if they hadn't called to make sure that is what we intended. so first, thanks gpscity.

The band is great, went on relatively easy. nice to have it my forerunner back on my arm instead of around my neck. well worth the price.

DISAPPOINTED IN DURABILITY

Pros: water proof
Cons: questionably durability

After 2 weeks the space between the holes broke even though I was more careful due to that being the replaced band's issue.

REPLACEMENT WRIST STRAP

Pros: exact match to orignal
Cons: needs instructions for removing old wrist strap

The name is misleading, as this is a wrist strap, but fortunately that's obvious from the picture.

This was perfect, as the original wrist strap had become stretched, and would not stay closed. This item came with the necessary tool to make replacement easy.

My only criticism is that there were no instructions. It took me a few tries to figure out how to use the tool to remove the old wrist strap.

Recommend? YES

GARMIN FORERUNNER REPLACEMENT BAND

Pros: easy to change, sturdy, lots of adjustment

The band was extremely easy to change, even though there were no instructions provided. The handy little tool that comes with the band makes removing/replacing the pin that holds the band in place a breeze.

I had my band changed in less than five minutes!

BAND MADE WITH DEFECTIVE MATERIAL

Pros: none
Cons: there is no other strap that fits this garmin!

I purchased a new GPS in 6/2011. In late august, the strap broke where the pin slides through to hold it on to the device. I purchased 2 new replacement bands since if one broke, i wanted a backup. I received the new band around 9/1/2011. On sat 9/24/2011, the strap broke in the exact same place as the one that came on the original garmin after only wearing it 4 times. Fortunately, I purchased the extra band but i never thought i would need it this soon.

GREAT ARM BAND REPLACEMENT!

This is a very good kit replacement for your arm band!It was very easy to assemble and it now looks and fit like a brand new watch.I have been running again with my new arm band and I had no loosening of the watch.So it is an excellent fit.

The shipping was fast and professionally done.I am happy to have received my arm band in plenty of time for my next marathon

I will keep your company on my list if I need anything else The price was very good and I like the fact that it had a long and short band in the kit.The short one is great for me Thank's again,

STOCK WRISTBAND

Pros: fitted for the 305

Got this as a replacement for the original stock band that got torn up after a year of wear. Does not seem as durable as others, but was hard to find a band to fit the 305.

EXCELLENT SOLUTION FOR REPLACING ARMBAND

Pros: price, convenience, exact armband as original

The armband for my Forerunner 305 broke, and this product comes with several armbands of different sizes to choose from, as well as a tool for getting the armband in, which is a little tricky for any sort of band replacement operation, but it worked. Great price and it's good to have a product like this, which provides the exact same armband as the original product, when the band breaks.

EXACTLY WHAT I EXPECTED

Pros: exactly as advertised
Cons: only needed the shorter strap.

Strap broke on my Garmin 305. This was an identical replacement strap, exactly as described and pictured. Service by GPSCity was great. Like others I wish I could get just the length I needed (in my case, the shorter band) but understand it's probably cheaper this way.

This replacement arm band seems to fit even better than the original arm band that came with the Forerunner. Nice comfortable fit. I have a small wrist and the smaller strap is able to hold the Forerunner in place nicely without pinching.

REPLACEMENT ARM BAND WORKS

Cons: none

Not much to say, except that you need this little set of replacement arm bands when and if the originals wear out or break on your Garmin 305, as mine did. This set is easy to install--I was done in 60 seconds--and seems slightly tougher than the originals
