The replacement charging cable for the Vertical 2 is still not available in Türkiye. They said it will be available soon. We’re waiting.

Here is the photo of the other watch I found on eBay. [image: 1782430445459-5681d8dd-d3d3-4f45-9151-e77c3eec8da0-image.jpeg]

@Francesco-Pagano Grear color match Even though I’m more of a nylon strap guy, I find Race 1 straps great. Also, Vertical 2 straps are worth checking out.

@Mattg576 Thank you! I bought a similiar to 8 from china online store and for sure it is not as good as a original one.

@Doron-G I have a few of these but they are gone from Suunto store. I would try to check Suunto outlets/dealers.

@Brad_Olwin said in Suunto wristband: @Tami999 I managed to snag one of these a few years ago. A friend that works for Suunto gave it to me. Yay, Iam glad my memory is not that bad! Thanks for sharing.

@thanasis I also had the explorer strap on my 9B. Fantastic strap which lasts for ever! I still have it and should try and fit the narrower pins from the V2.

@sky-runner said in Suunto Athletics 7 loop strap: @v.sacre This looks like a common problem. I have the same strap, and the metallic part also detached after just a few weeks of use. I put it back and squeezed it with pliers, and so far, many weeks later, it stays attached. But I should say that overall I am disappointed with this strap and will not buy another one. The main problem is that it quickly stretched out and lost some of original elasticity. The longer strap is now borderline too long for me, but the short strap is too short. Next time I’ll buy Garmin Ultrafit strap which is higher quality and more comfortable. I also used Abanen hook and loop strap from Amazon with Race and still use with Race S. Even inexpensive Abanen strap is higher quality, in my opinion, than this Suunto strap. Longer strap is too long for me, I mean this metal part is too close to watch case. Short is too short like You said. I chooses to use short and over time it’s scratched out and its longer over time of use. But I agree. A bit expensive for this type of strap. I would buy 3, maybe 4 of them for same price without logo.

@Hari-Seldon said in Suunto Race/ Race2/ Race S/ Run covers: that will remove dents and scratches I know, but I don’t like scratched stuff!

Have this strap since a few days now. Its great that it is much lighter, but the Race S is getting a little bit head-heavy. Its okay, but I wouldn’t use it with heavier watches. For Run and Race S Titanium its a perfect fit. I didn’t like it at the beginning as it was stiff, but wearing it made it softer. From my experience its not better for OHR per se, but I like that you can tighten easily during ther run. As I noticed cadence lock today running downhill a quick tightening of the strap resolved it in seconds. Long answer short: It helps in certain situations Edit: @Hari-Seldon: Black one is still sold out, so I got Coral. Love the colour

Would love the Power Orange as a nylon loop…

@Tieutieu Thanks mate, I really like the look of the orange 8 so will probably take a punt on that

@Francesco-Pagano however there are 2 straps (different sizes) in the package, so the price is still good I believe

@tinten.addi Got it, I just checked out the UK website and it is the old style.They have changed the website in the US and it does not have several of the items that are available in the UK. Having said that, the Run is in stock in the US so… Suunto is so special.
