Versa series wristbands that don't contain nickel

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Hi there, 

 

I was wondering if there's any straps out there for the fitbit versa 2 that doesn't contain any nickel.

 

I bought one for the wife for her birthday but she has an allergy to nickel and has come out in a bad rash and itching isn't helping so I need to get her a new strap ASAP that hasn't got any nickel on at all.

 

Many thanks

Ian

From the Versa 2 on-line manual

Materials
The housing and buckle on Versa 2 are made of anodized aluminum. While
anodized aluminum can contain traces of nickel, which can cause an allergic reaction
in someone with nickel sensitivity, the amount of nickel in all Fitbit products meets
the European Union's stringent Nickel Directive.
The Versa 2 classic wristband is made of a premium, comfortable silicone similar to
that used in many sport watches.

 

I've seen same description on other Fitbit models.  If her problem is just with the buckle and not the actual housing, all I could think of looking on Amazon where they have many third-party Fitbit straps.  I don't notice any saying nickel-free but didn't look in depth.  Maybe it would have to be some kind of elastic to be without a clasp.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
