Galaxy Watch: Changing the strap

If you want to give your Samsung Galaxy Watch your own or just a new style, you can easily change the strap.

• Generally, you need to follow the same procedure for each model in the Galaxy Watch family if you want to change the strap.

• First, turn off your Smartwatch and turn it over so that the display is facing down.

• You can now see a small bolt on both parts of the wristband. This is on the side of the strap closest to the casing.

• First press the bolt of one band and take the wristband out of the holder on its side. Then you can remove the entire part. Repeat the procedure with the other half of the band.

• When inserting the new wristband, you must go through the steps you have just completed backwards.

• First insert the pin of the wristband into the eyelet of the case on the side facing away from the pin.

• Then press the pin and insert the pin on this side into the corresponding eyelet of the watch. Make sure that the strap is aligned so that the pin points towards the wrist when wearing the Samsung Galaxy Watch.

• Then repeat the process with the second part of the strap.
