What a screw job, a rubber replacement band for the observer for $50.00. I had to replace my band now four times in approx 4 years, for this price, this watch should only be sold in Beverly Hills. I like the time piece, but come on Suunto, who is screwing the customer. This is the worst wrist band I have ever had with any watch I have owned. Well, looks like back to the good ole Timex!!!
