Advice on band replacement? (feddit.org)

The band of my Casio W-800H is torn and needs replacement.

Any advice for what to replace it with?

Most important for me are durability and comfort.

My advice would be to go with a black NATO strap. I've had one on my Casio CA53W-1 for years since the original strap broke. It's already lasted three times as long as the original did, plus it is a lot more comfortable.

Thanks! Is that a one piece or a two piece strap?

NATOs are one-piece. I have one on my F105-W, fits perfectly fine:

Match the width and you're good to go. You need an 18mm from what I can see.

I have been wearing the new strap daily now for a couple of weeks, and indeed very comfortable
