Suunto Core Strap, Rubber Replacement Watch Band for Suunto Core SS014993000.

I think this watch band is very good but the clasp on the band wears out maybe a thicker silicone band could improve the quality of the band.

Great band, plus tools for replacing band

First off, it fits and looks exactly like the original watch band - that is undeniable. My only issue is with the material it’s made of, although it has a cool non-glossy matte look to it - it’s a bit too rigid and becomes somewhat uncomfortable after long wear. I understand that the material needs to be strong enough to hold its shape and securely attach to the pins and effectively buckle. I’ve worn it for months at a time over the past year and it has no flex at all, nor has it formed to my wrist after some heavy use.The original strap was brittle and ultimately broke off - however, it did conform to my wrists curves and became very comfortable to wear before it went t*ts up.It’s a great value, looks great, possibly better than the original one since it has a nice matte look to it - I just wished it was made of a softer, more supple material.

Purchased mines March of 2024. It's super comfortable. Excellent replacement for the OEM band. There are some mix reviews, but i think it's Excellent value for the money. I highly recommend it. Its June 2025 and I still wear it daily. Love it.

More flexible than the original band and the camo has a great gray (with a somewhat green tint) digital pattern. Definitely a good purchase considering the low cost (a couple beers).

Great quality band for 1/5 the cost of a genuine Suunto. Fit and quality feel on par with the original. Only con and for the price I won’t knock off any stars is that the strap keepers tend to stick to the band so taking the watch off at the end of the day involves unsticking the keepers from the strap. It’s almost like they bond or stick to each other. Overall a great purchase and a perfect replacement for the Sunnoto Core straps that seem to only last a little over a year.

My Suunto watch band developed deep cracks on the inside of the band. It was close to falling off my wrist at any inconvenient time. Suunto bands cost about $50 for the same defective and short-lived material.I found my new band, with a weird name of Patrohoo, (must mean something in Chinese) on Amazon. Figuring that it might last as long as the original from Suunto (about 1 year) I ordered one.The band arrived without instructions, but it fit absolutely, exactly, as did the original. It had a different buckle. The buckle was supplied with a spring loaded pin typical of watches forever. A penknife blade under the buckle metal was used to compress the pin and out it popped.With the buckle removed, I could remove the Sunto buckle, much nicer, and attach it to the patrohoo band. Removing the Suunto buckle required two screwdrivers. Two came with the Patrohoo, but they were too small for the job. I had two larger screwdrivers (2.6 mm) that fit perfectly. With a small bench vise, the buckle was held to permit the tow screwdrivers working together to remove the pin holding the buckle.The nicer Suunto buckle was easily added to the Partohoo band.The two screwdriver/bench vise combination was used to remove the band halves from the watch case and reinstall the Partohoo bands. The replacement bands were an absolutely perfect match for the Suunto original bands.So there you are. The Patrohoo is a fabulous replacement for the original Suunto band. It is also a bargain price compared to a Suunto original made with sub-standard materials.
