How do I change the straps of my Suunto watch?

Getting started:

This article will offer you step-by-step instructions and how-to videos on how to change the strap of your Suunto watch. You are able to find the exact model of your watch on the back of the device. In case your watch model is not listed, please visit a Suunto Service Center to get your strap changed.

You can always find suitable accessories and spare part straps for your device by filtering or searching by product name on our Accessory & Spare parts page. You can check the strap compatibility while filtering the products on the page.

Note: Any device damage that happens during an unauthorized strap change is not covered by Suunto International Limited Warranty.

To detach a strap from the watch:

    1. Turn the watch upside down.
    2. Pull the small pin of the spring bar towards the middle of the strap to release the spring from its socket.

    2. Pull the pin towards the middle of the strap to retract the free end of the spring bar.

Ensure the strap is in place by checking that the pin goes all the way into the pinhole and by pulling the strap gently.
