    Mine is broken
    Any idea where I can pick one up in Ireland or UK ?
    A search on Ebay only seems to bring up US sellers

    I replaced mine with the quick release strap so I could use it on the bike. You should be able to pick one of these up easily enough on eBay and they're much better (IMHO).

    As far as I know they are a standard enough strap, I'd say most jewelers would have something. They are bound to be on eBay too.

    My 305 came with two straps, I assume they all did. So if you still have the original box check it.

    if it's less than one year old you can contact garmin through their uk website and they should get back in touch for proof of receipt and will send you out a new one - did for me. as other poster said - second strap with original also - might work for you.

    On my 3rd strap for the 305 at the moment.

    Ebay is the place to get them.

    @Redjeep, have you a link to the quick release one you got?

    Right lads, wats the story with this ..

    I downloaded the app the other day and went for a run and it stopped working after 4.5 k.

    Then last night i had 7 k done and it was working well, telling me my pace, distance etc which i found good but then 5 mins later it announces that iv completed 17 kilometers which is just frustrating. so after doing a 21 k run it informed me that i had done 108km and that my average speed was 0.53 seconds a kilometer..

    Is this a regular occurence as in its a hape of shi** or is that it rarely happens..

    Should i simply invest in one of the watches and what is the cheapest and best version??

    Thanks
