Garmin Watch Bands: Which Strap Size Fits Your Garmin?

Changing the strap on a smartwatch or sports watch is easier than many people think. As long as you choose the right width (for example 20mm or 22mm), virtually any standard watch strap that attaches with ordinary spring bars will fit. That means you can easily adapt your Garmin to both your style and how you use it.

Which material should you choose?

If you train or live an active life, we recommend hard-wearing materials such as nylon (for example a Nato strap) or a rubber watch strap. They handle sweat, water and rough use, and they're comfortable, durable and perfect for everything from a run to a swim.

And let's be honest: if your sports watch mostly gets used for… well, not much sport at all? Then it might be time to upgrade your style with a smart leather watch strap instead.

All our watch straps fit the Garmin watches listed below, as long as you choose the correct width.
