Garmin - GPS receiver band - Garmin Forerunner 405CX Review

At the time of this review, the item pictured here is the soft velcro strap replacement for the Garmin Forerunner 405 watches. I ordered it and received a replacement OEM rubber strap, which is the wrong item. I wrote to their customer service and received automated authorization for return, so I'm not sure if any human ever saw my reason for the return. So, I'm not sure if anyone at AntOnline knows that the item pictured here is different from the one they're shipping. Take that into account if you order this item! Otherwise, shipping was prompt and the (wrong) item was well packed.

Garmin Wrist strap kit Review

I purchased the Garmin Wrist strap to replace the existing straps on my Forerunner 405. While the only reason I needed to replace the original strap was because I have a dog who decided to turn my GPS watch into a chew toy, I'm actually pretty glad he did chew it or I wouldn't have discovered this product! The original straps were hard and resulted in blisters on my wrist from rubbing during my long runs. The velcro strap is a dream in comparison. Soooo comfortable and easy to make the switch. The only issue I could foresee would be the fabric straps starting to smell from the sweat but I haven't had to deal with that yet.
I only gave it four stars because I had purchased the green forerunner and, with black being the only option, the black strap and green watch face does look a little funny. However, I'm more concerned about function over form.
Oh, almost forgot... I thought I could get a deal and originally bought the Garmin wrist strap that is selling for $19.99. That one is for earlier models, it doesn't contain the required adapters needed to convert the 405. Don't make the same mistake I did!

This strap is excellent; if you own the forerunner 201! I bought this because the 'bought with' info on amazon indicated this might work with the Forerunner 305 that I received as an early Christmas gift. It does NOT fit with the garmin 305!
I bought Gps, Hook-and-loop Fastener Wrist, part number 010-10713-00, instead and it works like a charm. My 5 star review here reflects the overall quality of the piece, but I thought it would be helpful for any other Garmin Shoppers to know what they were getting (since this item shows up prominently if you search for a velcro strap for the 205/305.

Garmin Forerunner Quick Release Kit Review

Garmin Forerunner Quick Release Kit

This kit contains a velcro wrist strap with a sturdy plastic mounting clip. The original strap pieces are permanently removed using the supplied tool, then the strap pins are replaced into the 305 body. The pins can then clip into the mount on the velcro strap, or the identical part of the bike mount. Removing the unit from the bike and putting it on your wrist, or vice-versa, takes less than 5 seconds.
The reviewer who said you have to take several minutes to re-attach the original wrist straps after taking the 305 off your bike seems to have failed to grasp the concept; the velcro strap *permanently* replaces the original straps.
The only potential downside I can think of is that the clip on the velcro wrist strap could hang up on long sleeved clothing, like a wetsuit, so triathletes will want to put the strap on during T1. Other than that, this is a very handy piece of kit!
