Garmin Quickfit Adapters - For Hook Strap™ FBV3 (Fixed Bar) Watch Bands

$19.00

❗ When ordering these for a Hook Strap, select a wrist size that is 1.00” SMALLER than your actual wrist size.

Garmin Gang, Rejoice! Your long-awaited partner in convenience is finally here. Gone are the days of squeezing your favorite elastic watch bands through the proprietary lug spaces of Garmin’s vast smart watch offerings. Simply install a pair of these adapters onto each of your Hook Straps, and swapping bands now happens in a snap! Or simply leave them attached to your Garmin for easier strap installations.

Due to the closed loop nature of these adapters however, you will need a compatible Fixed Bar (FBV3) Hook Strap. This strap model allows for the Hook to be removed through a specially machined notch in the hardware, which leaves the end of the elastic free to slide through the loop of the adapter.

CRITICAL FITMENT NOTE: These adapters essentially extend the position of your “spring bars”, thereby decreasing the amount of strap needed to go from one end of the watch to the other. Each adapter adds about 0.50” in length to the height of the watch, meaning that when two adapters are in use, the watch is now 1.00” longer in the amount of wrist space it consumes. TL;DR: Order your straps 1.00” wrist size SMALLER than your actual wrist size.

INSTALLATION: You can either mount the adapters to the watch first and treat them like fixed bars, or attach them to the strap first. Once installed onto your watch though, you can just use the Quickfit mechanism to remove the strap entirely!

Build your custom Hook Strap™ FBV3 here! Then throw in a set of adapters to complete the ensemble.

This list is not my own, and since I can’t possibly test all of these myself, will be subject to feedback from all of you!

I do know that my own Instinct Solar does NOT work well with these, as the lugs stick out too far and do not let the adapters freely rotate.

So please reach out if you find an error among these options!
