Might I Suggest a Suunto Branded Nylon Velcro Watch Band
-
Coros strap from decathlon. Tad cheaper than the Garmin version and, since I’ve swapped it with the Suunto strap, I’ve hardly noticed it. -
@craigeggleton These also work very well if looking for a non-velcro Suunto branded option.https://www.suunto.com/en-us/Products/Straps/suunto-22mm-athletic-5-silicone--strap/suunto-22mm-athletic-5-silicone-strap-pearl-white-sm/

Thanks to the interesting posts, I came across the COROS PACE 3 Nylon Band and I’m delighted. Compared to i.e. LYYLTX, which I have also tried, the Coros Band is much more comfortable and breathable. In addition, the low weight of the Coros Band makes my Race Titanium somewhat lighter and more competitive…

@zucchero the weight of an FR965
. ImpressiveI had the Pace 3, that strap is very good. Amazfit nylon straps are pretty nice too.

@duffman19 I open a very old subject but thank you for your recommandation.
I tried today a new nylon coros pace 3 on my vertical watch and it fit perfectly. I tried so much nylon band before (Amazon, garmin ultra fit 2 etc…) but today i find the perfect for my watch.
Just a point to know before to buy: you have to buy bars because Coros give you only the strap with one side integrated bar. The other one need to be fix with an additional bar (need to buy before).
Thanks Guy for your post ! -

Thanks Guy for your post !in the Coros Pace 3 I bought, three additional bars were within the package, “hidden” inside a small box

@Jer075 In July last year I bought the same Coros strap as the one in the last pic posted above our posts. The strap came packed with one pin in it and three more, so I used one more pin from the box the for the other lug and two spare ones left. I wore the strap every day since October till mid January and stopped wearing it cause it got worn off - the sticky part (I don’t know the right word in English). They replaced it for me. But I bought a Garmin nylon strap for which I use the pins from the Coros strap box and this strap feels way more comfortable and with better quality.

@Highlands ok I Hope that it Will be better for me and I will wear it for month !
-
@Stefano-M64 ok ok ! On my case i bought only strap and not the Watch.

Another option is to use Abanen Hook and Loop nylon strap. It is available on Amazon. It is similar to Garmin Ultrafit strap but less expensive. It works quite well with my Race S.
It comes without spring bars which you need to buy separately. I recommend the Barton brand bars - they are a bit thicker and fit Suunto watches well.

I bought the following 22mm straps, which come with Quick Release Pins. I have found them very comfortable:

I’m quite a fan of the Polar version, but I would buy a Suunto version immediately.
