Blaze - can't interchange classic bands?

[11butterscotch]

So I just  saw on the accessory page that additional classic bands DO NOT come with a frame, though the leather and metal bands do???

That's weird, because how would I buy a different color classic band if there is no bracket to pop into? Or for that matter, how even to replace the classic band if it breaks?

This thread was very painful to read.

I wish the leather and stainless did not have the frame, since we already have one.  But I udnerstand that messing with pins in those bands might cause more problems in the long run.

The band is theoretically easy to swap out but if the tiny metal pin breaks off, you are stuck! I totally agree that Fitbit would be better off to sell the frame/band replacements as a combo for ease of use and that most consumers would be willing to pay a little more for that rather than just the band. Fitbit has great service, so I'm hoping they will listen and react!

Until the pin breaks off and you are stuck with the band in the frame and no way to replace/swap it out.

I know there are already a few videos about how to swap bands already in this thread, but this video does a good job of breaking down how to swap bands on the Blaze step-by-step if anybody is still having any trouble.

Hope this helps!

You can also buy a third party frame as well
