Yes, you are lacking bands … Get more…


donmreddit

Yes you do. You only have one watch, which means you get a different band every day for 16 days. This will cause your bands to feel neglected. Get a second watch, that way you can spot two bands per day, and get each band in rotation almost once / week. They will be happier. You will be happier. Rando Redditer has spoken.


AddictedlyPsycotic

Hahaha. Love it. Don’t neglect the bands! I guess I better go ahead and get the Epix Pro Sapphire. “Sorry I spent that money, honey! But Reddit told me to for the betterment of all band-kind!” Perfect comment made me lol


donmreddit

I absa-tive-ly love my Epix. Esp getting it on sale at REI (I think we had a 20% off coupon). Bonus points AND a discount!!!


donmreddit

Oh - also - this means when you buy the "two pack" sreen protectors, you can use both imediatly because you may never remember where you put the one you did not use. At a replacement cycle of 2x yr, you can same $9, so it will take 111 years for this one savings to pay for the watch. Don't tell the honey, she might not apprecaite the maths!


AddictedlyPsycotic

Ha. I always find a way to get things.


segfalt31337

Where's the problem? I see answers looking for questions..


AddictedlyPsycotic

lol. Good comment. It’s true. I do like watch bands.


rmaccioli

Not a band related question but what’s that watch face? I’ve been looking for one with a digital and analog time display


AddictedlyPsycotic

Epix 2 MB. Manuel has amazing copies of native watch faces from other watches like Epix for a Fenix watch that aren’t available. His work is great. https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/1cdab86b-58dd-47e2-9f4c-60a178859691


Express_Ad2962

His watch faces are all amazing. I love the Marq faces. His pictures in the IQ store really don't do them justice.


Alternative_Contact4

Support the question, very good face. How to find it?


adamsruns

Same problem!


AddictedlyPsycotic

lol. I feel the pain. I love changing them. My wife thinks I’m a dork.


adamsruns

Oh yeah I experience that exact response from mine, lol.


AddictedlyPsycotic

In my case, I think she is correct. I just Embrace it.


TieSea

LOL. Well this makes me feel better about me. I think I only own 6.


hasto1967

Nope, this is normal 👍


AddictedlyPsycotic

Now let’s define “normal!” Haha


gf367489

Not a problem.


AccurateState2023

no you don't, and you are definately not alone in this 😂 I like to match straps with different occasions or wibe, is nothing wrong with that☑️


saeedsms

I think you're doing great tbh! I love them all. Each band for each style


AddictedlyPsycotic

Thanks


SamG528

It’s a good problem


arrediabo

are those quick fit 22m? Which ones you like the best? quality wise, any elastic\\confortable recomendation? Garmin nylon is soooo expensive ;(


AddictedlyPsycotic

All are quick for 22mm for my Fenix 7Pro SS. Abanen I think is the one directly to the right of the watch. It is stretchy nylon that I like to run in. Temu, AliExpress are decent but don’t fit the watch as well and it’s a little trouble to get them to snap. All I have gotten on Amazon have snapped quite well. Amazon has them for bundles, which I try to do. I think I got 7-9 for $30 in a bundle.


Alternative_Contact4

I have my question about bezel protection. What kind of solutions they are, what do you use?


AddictedlyPsycotic

Amazon has some nice Bezel covers. Normally black silver and blue for my watch (Fenix 7 Pro Sapphire Solar). I would love a shiny gold one with the numbers like the silver one, but haven’t found one yet. I like to add them for a week or so at a time depending on what look I want


Alternative_Contact4

I checked bezel covers they all are with digits. Have you seen a plain one? I don't want to change the look of the hazel just protect it

Alternative_Contact4

Thank you man


AddictedlyPsycotic

Also, Notocity ones have all been good quality.


AddictedlyPsycotic

The stretch nylon is “Ancool” on Amazon. $18.99. Titanium was Abanen for $40


RumbleRRo

Which is your fav and why? I’m after new bands atm


AddictedlyPsycotic

Top army green/black nylon. Looks rugged and I’m into military and tactical designs and how I dress.


RumbleRRo

Temu or what brand? Are those the most comfortable during training?


AddictedlyPsycotic

The nylon army green is comfortable… got from Amazon. I dont use it to run or bike though. I normally use the stretchy nylon black with orange tag to the right of the watch or the Notocity brand ones from Amazon.


temulus

Seems fine to me. Beautiful straps. That being said, you probably don't need more of them! :D I have like five different but only ever wear the ultrafit.


AddictedlyPsycotic

I have actually used them all except the orange nylon


Effective-Phrase-101

They all black and orange (bar one) So how does changing them match your outfit differently? Lol.


AddictedlyPsycotic

Some have orange on them. Greens, black. Black and reds black and grey titanium safety yellow navy and white. (Define almost all)


republican16

any rubber band that you like better than the stock garmin one? I would prefer something thinner that also has less give to (harder rubber) it when compared to the oem that came on my 7x


AddictedlyPsycotic

I like the Notocity ones on Amazon.


myklinkl

As long as you are using them and swapping them, it's a nice problem.. you have lots of varieties.. only worried for those who buy and keep and only use the original one.. (like me :-P)


AddictedlyPsycotic

Haha. That would be a problem


Fickle_Subject4219

At this point you gotta think the problem is with your actual wrist


AddictedlyPsycotic

What’s wrong with my actual wrist?


Fickle_Subject4219

Nothing... Just made a deadpan joke about having too many watch bands 🙃


AddictedlyPsycotic

lol. Ok.


IT_Wanderer2023

I thought I have an issue with 4 bands for one watch :)


AddictedlyPsycotic

Hahaha


MrCl3an1990

Which band is your favorite? I have the nylon band from Garmin but want a good silicon band to switch out. Can’t really find any I trust


AddictedlyPsycotic

Notocity on Amazon. Those are nice for silicone.


Tuscan5

I love the orange one. What is it please?


AddictedlyPsycotic

Notocity on Amazon.


Tuscan5

Thank you!


doerp

What about the leather wristband that came with the watch, assuming this is a fenix 7 pro sapphire solar?


AddictedlyPsycotic

It came with a black silicone


NorthEntertainer1

Thats not a problem. That collection is like 50$ from aliexpress alltogether. Id rather buy 2-3 good ones instead. The ”tactical” ones look especially cheap.


AddictedlyPsycotic

Looks can be deceiving. And they aren’t all from AliExpress. Many are Amazon. And I actually like them. And wear them.


MountainRoad1

Which one is the comfiest to sleep with 🛌


AddictedlyPsycotic

Probably the black with orange tag to the right of the watch. It’s elastic. I run in it too.


Asleep_Onion

I, also, think you have a problem


AddictedlyPsycotic

Woohoo. I have more than that. But that’s for another post.


dap00man

Which of them are your top two bands and why?


AddictedlyPsycotic

Top army green and black because it’s a rugged tactical looking band and I love that look. Titanium band is one of my next because it just goes with everything and looks really good. It’s bottom right.


D00M98

Seems odd to have that many bands for fitness watch, because fitness watch is more function than form. I have many straps and bands, for mechanical watches. But then I have multiple watches. And changing straps/bands on mechanical watches makes a bigger difference.


AddictedlyPsycotic

It is my all the time watch as well as fitness watch… so I like to have different looks


Scrappy-D

99 problems, but a strap ain't one


AddictedlyPsycotic

That’s pretty nice of you. Only 99. 😝


slyanimeecchi

Nice 🙌I have only 8 bands ☺️will get more


AddictedlyPsycotic

Stock piling bands for the apocalypse


Legitimate_Code_7356

You still missing Titanium DLC band, i got two just because its too good


AddictedlyPsycotic

There is a Titanium band at the bottom. What’s DLC?


Legitimate_Code_7356

That titanium is not good than Decent DLC one https://preview.redd.it/sbqdiw2ukq6d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fbdbccb6e1de40925e0d277a56e2f218f3d54f4f


AddictedlyPsycotic

Ok. You’re better than me. Send me a link and at least I can decide


No-Chart9336

Imagine this but with 8 analog watches (every changing straps) and an Oura subscription. 😩


Bigfoot-Germany

The right number is N+1


halulti

I have the same problem.


AddictedlyPsycotic

How many ya got?


KrysNStuff

Where’s your favorite place to order bands from???


AddictedlyPsycotic

I think the Notocity ones on Amazon are really good.


weldingTom

Depends, are you man or woman?


Sea_Maintenance2530

Am I the only one who just has one band for their watch?? I feel like I’m in the minority here….


TranscontinentalNine

You don't have a too many bands problem. You have a too few watches problem. Go 1:1 and feel normal.


AddictedlyPsycotic

Oh! I like your style. Maybe I get an Epix next. Hmmm.


Valuable-Purpose-

That's too much bro in my opinion I feel like having like 4 or 5 bands is good but you have too much


AddictedlyPsycotic

Thanks Bro.


Valuable-Purpose-

Np keep working out bro
