casio carbon fiber insert band

Post by kempoman » Wed Nov 08, 2017 6:22 pm

Gents,
I am thinking of a Rangeman with carbon fiber insert band. But, wonder how good is the band in terms of pliability and flexibility. Are they easy to wear on a 6.5 inches wrist? Thanks you.

It feels about the same as a regular resin band.... imho, the tales of better pliability/flexibility are total bullshit. I have the new froggy, gpw 1000 and 2000 - No difference compared to my non-carbon rangeman.

Only model that does have a much softer band is GW-5000 - but it is not carbon fiber

All this said, carbon bands do look awesome
