Whoever has a large band

[Andrew Elliott]

Please could whoever has a large band say how big their wrist is? I'm ordering mine from the US and wont have a chance to change if it is the wrong size. According to the sizing guide I'm an inbetween med and large and it says inbetweeners should order up. I did do that. Just nervouse based on what ive been reading

My wrist size is just under 7.9 in. (~200mm). I have a Band 2 large. There are ten notches on the clasp. I normally have the clasp set on notch 6 (10 being the tightest), and tighten it to the 7th notch when I run (to help the HR sensor handle the arm motion and sweat). All but ~ 1/8 of an inch of the large metal slotted part of the band is covered by the top part of the band (side with the UV sensor).

I'm already at my target weight, but I have the right size with wiggle room either way.

BTW - When I tried on a medium Band 1 last Christmas, I was able to get it on, but it would have been too tight for any physical exercise. They had no large in stock, so I ended up getting a large FitBit Surge.

My wrist measured 7.2 inches. The L was way too big in the real world. The M is just right

My wrist is about 185mm and I just picked up a large. I am able to put it on the smallest setting but it is not comfortable. I chose the large since the medium's battery was hitting a wrist bone when wore on the underside of arm.

To add another data point, my wrist is 7.5 inches (19 cm). I went with the large as I had a large Band 1. According to the sizing instructions, I could have gone with the medium, but read on and you'll learn why I didn't.

Band 2 is definitely larger than Band 1. I casually wear mine at the 7th or 8th notch--I have 2-3 notches left on the clasp. At this position, it sits between my wrist bone and hand. When I exercise, I open up the clasp wider and slide it up my arm a little in the direction of my elbow. So it sits above my wrist bone. I found with B1 that it tracked my HR better there.

HR on the B2 is a little flaky so far (three workouts), so I'm still experimenting with the position. But I saw the same thing with B1. Seems like it got better with time. I don't know if it was adjusting or I was just learning the best way to wear it.
