Re: [RC] Garmin Parts and the wrist band - rides2far@xxxxxxxxGreat idea! I have honestly held off about buying one for that reason. Now...to convince Bill I need it even though he bought me this big ol' hand held Garmin Legend (which I know he bought because it is waterproof and he wanted it for his Kayak! :-) Long as we're at it. Any advice for places to download tracks other than Motionbased?

I have done this as well as added this to my user docs. Place a good amount of shoe goo under the watch case and the band that is GLUE the watch to the band. Works great. I had one come off - only one side, then after I put the pins back in place I decided to do the glue on - No more problems. The G305 well you are out of luck here. I was going to look for a sports type band that the G305 could be attached to - could not find any that were wide enough. For you G305 riders, just keep looking around for a Velcro on sport type watch band that goes around your wrist and the unit will attach to the band with the pins, then just glue it on to the band as I do with the 301. Since I sold the G305 and only the G301 it is not an issue for me. Spare Parts Yes look to ebay. May not be able to find just the watch, but you may get a good deal on complete used system then yo will have a spare transmitter. Would not be cost effective to just buy a new watch unit from Garmin.
