Does anybody know how to create new activity with custom fields on Ocean, this was always inside App but i can not find it there now?

I am so tempted by the Suunto Ocean. It is so beautiful. On the other hand the upcoming firmware update for Race and Vertical are also super intriguing. Now: Difficult question: When can we expect a similar software update for the Ocean? Someone already mentioned definitely later then Race and Vertical and less frequent.

[isazi]

@Patrick-Löffler-0 we can expect the Ocean getting some (all?) of the Race features, but not sure when. A quarterly release cycle for this watch is probably not happening.

@isazi Thanks for your fast answer. Still. Such a great looking watch!

[deserthike20]

Will the new tides watchface complication be an Ocean exclusive or with that be coming to other watches in the update? It looks very well designed!

[isazi]

@deserthike20 I do not have that, maybe it’s a future feature.

[deserthike20]

I’ve noticed in pics that the Ocean looks pretty big and thick on some wrists. Understandably the pics are usually over a wetsuit…

The specs show its actually thinner than the vertical and only 1 mm bigger. With a regular strap how does it fit in real life compared to the Vertical? Does it fit much larger?

@vlado

I had the same issue and it was resolved by updating the Suunto app!

[Iggge]

God dammit! Suunto makes soo good looking sport watches, and Ocean is even more good looking than the Vertical.

[isazi]

@Iggge I agree, first time I saw the Ocean I was in love with the design, such a beautiful watch

@isazi do you know if it has blood oxygen measurements as the Race, SV? I couldn’t find it on the web. Thanks.

Yes it does and I agree with @isazi that the watch is stunning.

[EzioAuditore]

@Brad_Olwin thanks a lot. Well I guess I’ll be getting one for my summer dives it will pair nicely with the rest: everyday Race, mountains Vertical, waters Ocean
Talk about supporting Suunto

[Brad_Olwin]

@EzioAuditore Good to hear. I’ve done extensive exercise testing with the ocean and it matches with Race and Vertical well. I did find using a Velcro band for running gave much better OHR. I have not done dive testing.

[EzioAuditore]

@Brad_Olwin cool thanks a lot. I always use belt when running. OHR works fine for hike, bike and yoga/core/pilates.

[EzioAuditore]

@isazi Ordered mine since I’ll be spending quality time near sea this year but pool dive training too for more serious diving not only freestyle… One question: The led on the right side is showing what exactly? I couldn’t find anything in the manual or was reading it too fast and didn’t see it. Tank pod connectivity? Does it change colour? Thanks.

[isazi]

@EzioAuditore on my watch it is not a led, it is a, how do you call that, paint that you see in the dark? To find your watch in the darkness. This is what I know about that (I may be wrong, I never used the watch underwater).

[EzioAuditore]

@isazi aa ok I think it is fluorescence. Thanks. It looked quite a lot like a LED

[Highlands]

@EzioAuditore Hands down, one of the most beautiful watches on the market.
