The band is very expensive and if the new band lasts as long as the first one I will need to research and buy a different watch.

I do not think it is acceptable to sell an outside watch with an inferior band.

The band feels like super cheap plastic

6 months later and the band has completely broken.

Sometimes locating a new band is difficult, which renders the watch unusable.

My biggest gripe is the band

the band broke without any signs of wear and tear and fell off my arm cracked the screen

The watch is okay, the band is crap though

so I don't have to spend another $30 to replace a bad band.

but if band keeps breaking I’ll have to

I have a Tom Tom multi sport watch and the band was good

The band is hard to clean.

Love the functions of this watch but the bands are defective

The new band a little softer than the old band,

Split watch band

Also: the band completely broke <1 yr into wear

the watch comes with a cool lean wrist band which is much lighter and easier compared to some of the previous TomTom running watches

Two bands of mine have broken and one time I almost lost the watch

Right away I noticed the band did not seem secure in the way it locks in, you have to play with it so it catches

The band is a problem.

This band works well.

That being said, the band fell apart pretty quickly, and it sounds like that is a common complaint among others

The band, however, has already cracked and broken all the way in just 3 months.

band broke in less than 6 months

I Love the functionality, hate the band

The band is plastic and it has already split in less than a year.

- The band is good but not great

Unfortunately, watch band also broke, again no

I’m just concerned about what happens after 1 year and the band continues breaking

Effective training tool, but be prepared to purchase new bands at least once a year; the bands are poorly made and break often

Also I received the watch in May and my band is already beginning to rip

My band broke and when I called TomTom directly, they replaced the band, no questions asked

This band failed after 2 months

If you go online or on your phone to the "app" for it, it charts your heart rate on a graph throughout the day as well as during workouts

Occasionally it doesn't get the connection as quick as you would like when you are running - not sure why
