Overview

The Garmin 010-11251-85 is a replacement Blue Frost silicone watch band for compatible Garmin Forerunner watches.

It replaces a worn or broken band and is meant for Forerunner 230, 235, and 630 models. The band attaches using the same screw-on style used by these watches, so you can swap it without hunting down extra small parts.

For boat days, silicone is a practical choice because it rinses clean after spray, fish slime, sunscreen, or sweat, and it does not stay waterlogged like fabric straps can.

Compatibility and fit

This band is intended for Garmin Forerunner 230, 235, and 630 watches. Match the watch model name first, since many Garmin watches use similar-looking straps but different attachment hardware.

If your watch uses a different style such as quick-release spring bars or a quick-fit latch system, this band will not mount correctly.

Installation and setup

Remove the existing band from the watch case, then fasten the new band in place using the included pins. Take your time when starting the screws so they thread cleanly and sit flush.

After the swap, give the band a gentle tug at each end and confirm it is seated evenly before wearing it on deck or underway.

Use on board

This is a good match for boaters who wear a Forerunner while running the dinghy, logging workouts on shore, or keeping a watch on time and alarms during an offshore run. It also makes sense as a spare to keep in a gear bag in case the original strap fails mid-trip.

Maintenance and care

After saltwater exposure, rinse the band with fresh water and let it dry before storing the watch in a locker. If sunscreen or grime builds up, wash with mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly.

Avoid harsh cleaners and solvents, which can dull silicone and leave residue on your skin during long days on the water.
