Best Fossil Gen 6 bands 2024

Smartwatches, like the Fossil Gen 6, come with us nearly everywhere we go so it makes sense to have a band that's comfortable and matches our individual styles. The standard Fossil Gen 6 supports a 22mm or 18mm band depending on which model you get. The Fossil Gen 6 Wellness Edition on the other hand falls right in the middle with a 20mm band. Some of the best bands are made by Fossil itself but if you're in the mood for a cheaper option, there are plenty of options.

Get the right size for your Fossil Gen 6

There's a lot to love about Fossil's smartwatches with our Fossil Gen 6 review praising its good battery life with quick charging as a major strength. While the software didn't impress at the time, it has since been updated with Wear OS bringing with it some much-needed improvements helping the Fossil Gen 6 to cement its place as one of the best Android smartwatches. This watch came in two sizes with the larger model using a 22mm band and the smaller model using 18mm.

If you like a watch with a more traditional clock face and smart features as we saw in our Fossil Gen 6 Hybrid Wellness Edition review, you'll need to get a 20mm band. The Fossil Gen 6 Wellness Edition also uses a 20mm band. And finally, the Fossil Gen 6 Hybrid uses a larger still 24mm band. Most of the bands in this guide are 18mm or 22mm sizes, but some have 20mm and 24mm options. Be sure to pick the size that fits your watch.

If you're looking for a metal watch band that's easy to wear and is a good match for your watch's finish, the Stainless Steel mesh band from Fossil is a great pick. It's easy to put on your watch and comes in both 18mm and 22mm sizes so it will work with both sizes of the original Gen 6 watch.

If you’re looking for silicone, the Barton Elite Silicone watch band is a good pick with a lot of color options. The clasp is stainless steel so you don't need to worry about it breaking. It's also nice that this watch is offered in a wide range of sizes so you can get it for any of Fossil's Gen 6 models.
