Adjusting a QuickFit 22 or 26 Vented Titanium Bracelet

If you are adjusting your metal Garmin® watch band by adding or removing links, use the instructions below on how to add or remove a link to a QuickFit® watch band bracelet. If you need additional or replacement links for your vented titanium QuickFit 22 or QuickFit 26 bracelet, contact Product Support via the link at the bottom of this page.

IMPORTANT: Garmin recommends taking your watch to a jeweler or other professional to adjust the metal bracelet.

When adjusting the band, only the links closest to the clasp should be removed. The four outermost links (on each side of the band) are shaped differently and should not be removed. In the image below, the links that should not be removed are identified with a red X.

NOTE: Some titanium bands allow for micro adjustments located in the clasp of the band. For more information refer to the section below: Adjusting Other Titanium Bracelets .
