Vertical user here. Ordered Suunto Race. Its ok watch, but on Vertical when i move hand i can read all the info from watchface. On Race i see only time (YES i know i can set wake up when move to see full watchface but than it becomes flashlight) :D. Its bother me so much, probably return and won’t sell Vertical. I love that its more read-able during trainings, becouse on Vertical it was not always. I like colors, crown is not bad but makes no difference for me, i like buttons. Also Vertical seems more like a tool, with Race Ti i feel like toy or too elegant thing. Vertical have perfect design (as Ocean, but never seen live) More “G-Shock” design, Race/Race S is more elegant to suit. Don’t get me wrong, Race is great, i just get used to these tank-type watch.
Damn. I wish we could have technology that screen is MIP, and after press button/surf menu/activities become AMOLED. Would be perfect watch for me. I think I’ll keep my great Vertical and buy Vertical v2 when release
