Suunto Core Wrist Top Computer Watch Replacement Strap Light Black




Light black strap for Suunto Core watch.

User Ratings and Reviews

3 Stars Typical Suunto quality but over priced.
This is typical Suunto high quality but the msrp price Suunto sets for their rubber strap is too high. One nice thing about this strap is you will get the silver lugs to use with other non Suunto 24mm straps to fit on your Suunto Core.

5 Stars Suunto Core Flat Strap (Black)
Excellent 24mm strap with great feel. Highly recommended for the Core or other watches where you would need it. The price is a little steep, though.

2 Stars Not worth it
Had this strap for a year and, without all that much rough wear, it broke in two places. First, the small piece/loop that is intended to hold the “extra” strap to the band tore off. I kept wearing it using a doubled-over loop of duct tape to keep the strap tame, but before long the entire strap tore at one of the holes in the band. Not to mention it didn’t stay orange for very long since the orange just collects dirt and turns much of it black/brown after a few months. Unless you’re intending to only wear your Core around the house and never actually use it for what it’s intended for, get a more durable strap. I gave it two stars instead of one because it was actually quite comfortable.

Timex Ironman T5H431 Triathlon 30 Lap Watch

Timex Ironman T5H431 Triathlon 30 Lap Watch




It may be inconceivable that any watch would be expected to function while its owner swims 2.4 miles, bikes 112, and runs 26.2 miles. But this watch was made to excel in such conditions. This watch is packed with features for the most extreme of athletes, including a 30-lap recall monitor, occasion mode reminder, timer, three alarms, day-date-month calendar, and, most importantly, a large digital display and quick drying resin band. The bezel of this rugged watch is resin, and the case is stainless steel. The watch is water resistant to 330 feet (100 meters), has digital quartz movement, and is covered by a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty.

4 Stars Good watch
Bought this watch for my husband. He is really rough on watches so I usually end up buying him 1-2 a year. I bought him this identical watch last year and it ended up getting destroyed while he was playing basketball. The start/stop button fell off, so did the piece on the back that holds the strap flat. If it didn’t fall apart I would have given it 5 starts. If you aren’t rough on watches then this watch should last a long time.

4 Stars Stellar Watch Great Value
This watch is great. Awesome Value. The flix doesn’t work so great. you have to jolt your wrist for it to work. The 3 time zones are great and it has 3 alarms. I would 100% reccomened this watch. All the value at a cheap price!

5 Stars Ironman Triathlon 30 Lap Traditional
Great watch for the price. Easy to see the numerals, even with my bad eyes.

5 Stars Ironman Triathlon 30-Lap
I have used Ironman watches for over 20 years and they just keep getting better. They have always been very accurate (to within 1 or 2 seconds a month). They also have all the features you could ever want for training. This version has some other really nice features like the “occasion” reminder so you don’t miss your girlfriend’s birthday or your anniversary. It also has three alarms that can be set for either daily, week day only or weekend only. It also has three time zones which may be a little overkill - I only use two - local and UTC (GMT). The Indiglo feature on this watch is very cool - the numbers light up while the background goes black. The Flix feature is also knida nice - it activates the Indiglo with the flick of your wrist. All-in-all, a great watch!
