Fitbit Blaze Metal Frame

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.
I love the blaze, especially because I could change the straps, but upon buying I've realised that buying a spare strap doesn't include the metal frame the blaze sits in. Now I know it may seem simple to just slide the things across on each side of the strap, but with fingers that struggle with doing small things, I'd hoped it was going to be just popping in or out of one case and into the other, so my question is can I buy a spare frame, so both my straps are ready to go, and I can just pop in and out? Rather than the fiddly job, which in a rush would be a pain I'm imagining.

me too---go to the thread "3rd party bands"  I bought one attached with the frame for $49.00 from amazon.  the seller is UMTele  (prime seller), it is a silver milanese stainless mesh.  I have both the rose gold and silver.

 

there is also another frame thread

Do a search on Amazon. You can also search this forum for lots of good info on bands and frames.

The easiest way for me to change the band is to first pop the Blaze out of the frame. I then use tweezers to grab the nub and slide the pin back.

Thank you. I've been unable to find a band with the frame included but maybe that's because I'm UK?

I'm confused with some threads, some say the metal frame is included in the leather strap and some say not. The way it is marketed it would appear to include the metal frame, but I'm unsure, so I've emailed support to confirm before I purchase.

If you have the actual link for that item on Amazon, I might be able to find it and then switch to Amazon UK.

Many thanks

The leather bands in the US come with the metal frame so it does just pop in and out. The color rubber bands Do Not come with the metal frame.

I paid $49.00 US, it is a very pretty band with a strong magnet.. the frame is identical to the original, i am hoping for a nice matte black one.  if you do a search on amazon for Blaze housings frame and watchbands, may things come up...i took the other one to the jewler and she showed me how to attach with tweezers because i am such a clutz!

hope this helps you
