Suunto Race S general discussion
-
I ordered the Race S on 9th July as soon as it was available. So far I haven’t received the mail with the tracking number, so I guess it’s not yet ready for delivery. How about others who have ordered on tuesday? Has your package already left Suunto? There seems to be a LOT of interest in this watch, great for Suunto!

I ordered one All Black for my wife on Amazon three days ago, which was actually sold and shipped by Sportler. I checked now, and there are three All Black models directly sold and shipped by Amazon, and delivered in 4/5 days.

@Stefano-M64 In shop where i bought All Black Race S there is still available lot of colors Race S. Strange.
This shop is www.aktywnynadgarstek.pl. Maybe u can order from there. -

@Stefano-M64
Welcome in the new order 🤪

Hello Suunto friends, I was able to order my race S yesterday on a French site. I received it today and put it on my wrist after loading the cartography and the map of my region.
The finish is superb, the heart sensor and the step counter have been greatly improved. It is for these reasons that I returned my vertical. I discovered the update with enthusiasm!

At my wake up, today, my new Race S is entering in the boot loop.
I can’t restart with older upper button. Just accces to service mode with long press the upper and the crown button.
It’s my first bug since 10 years of wearing Suunto watches
-
I also watched some of the review videos of Suunto Race S, and it seems on those they also scroll the wheel with ease and with one finger.
strange. On my watch only possible with two fingers on the crown and that way the “upper finger” nail hits a bit on the wrist. Because for a good grip on the crown, other finger must go a bit under the button…How about e.g. @Brad_Olwin or @Egika should it be extra stiff or same kind of experience that Suunto Race has?
Edit: …and also if watch turned off and wheel scrolled: I can hear a little rustle sound there. Other way a little smoother, and other way a more screech sound there. Not bad but anyway…"
Update on this: got money back from the original purchase and ordered a new one. The new watch works as it should, crown very smooth. So this issue was a failure on the button, not a feature.
-
@Mi_chael this usually is not a loop.
The watch will come back to operation, even if it takes time.
Did your’s restart and go into this screen many times in a row? -
-
@Mi_chael wow
-
Do you know how long the battery drain in this state ?
I can’t reboot with 12s upper button.
Is there a way to access in the service mode ?
-
@Mi_chael can you PM me?

in the one I have the crown can be rotate with one finger with ease, it’s just a bit more stiff than the crown of my Race

Received the race s in pink and didn’t like the colour in reality so going to send it back. I now can’t decide whether to order it in black or get the normal race in purple.
Are both watches completely the same except the size?

@Bexs2247 race s gorilla glass, made in Finland, 32gb of memory and better wrist sensor.
Race sapphire glass, made in China, 16GB for steel versions -
@MeazzaS9 thanks. What about the software and everything they do? Any major differences there
