Hello, I have a Garmin Fenix 3 HR watch and need a replacement strap....any recommendations of reputable sellers?

Do I need to get replacement pins at the same time?

Cheers

I've just replaced the strap on my 5x with one of https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B073B1CRVW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_CmvsEbTNZP48 A">these.

Way cheaper than an original Garmin one. Only discernible difference is that it's a bit less "stretchy". Clips straight onto the original pins.

I've got a few off AliExpress, about £2 or £3 each. They work fine, much the same as the original strap. Can reuse the original pins. Get the QuickFit type if you want to swap them easily.
Just make sure it is the correct width, seems you need 26mm for Fenix 3.

I bought a Fenix 3 replacement strap from FLINTIE on Amazon for £8. Pretty happy with it. Prefer it to the original.

Replaced first time with an original garmin one for lots of money. That lasted another year, so I bought 6 coloured knockoffs on amazon for peanuts. So far still on the first one, so it’s lasted half as long as originals and still looks new.
