This problem seems to be frequent among users of the watchu5bwerh4vmqb1.pngz0m39z287r4b1.png

I bought a kit from amazon which was nearly impossible to install correctly (little adhesive and a new cover). I was running and was a little sweaty and the new one fell off again...

Someone said to get 3M VHB tape, but I would love your opinion on the matter...

Maybe superglue to that little trench?

I would still like the HR monitor to work , but as long as I am ensured that no water damage can happen and the back won't fall off again... I'll do it.

anyhow the watch still functions with or without the back but obviously dirt and stuff can get into the sensors

Also is it more or less water-tight?

It seems to be water tight. But my wife does not trust these companies when they day stuff is water proof so she stays away from water anyways.
