      @StuieD I do like the look of the OCEAN ALOT! It could very well turn out to be the flagship model with a lighter weight version coming latre. Would love to see it turn out that way personally.

        Is the Ocean worh it for non divers? I am trying to decide between the Coean and the Vertical.

        from a rational point of view it makes no sense to buy the Ocean if you are not a diver, since it costs about twice than the Race, which is it’s closer competitor (not the Vertical) between the Suunto models. Dimensions are similar, the amoled screen is the same, as all the non-dive features, in addition the Race has the digital crown, that I appreciate a lot, which is missing in the Ocean.

          after 1.5 year i can say Suunto Vertical its a rugged BEAST and best option if you are not a scuba diver or doing recreational spearfing.
          in my opinion its the best watch out there, the main pros is powerfull battery, its almost have the double energy and matrix screen (im not a fun of amoled) the solar charge its an extra power option in that money price.
          and last the rugged design of SV i think its more goodlooking and “sporty - adventure” than "elegance " OCEAN
          BOTH OF THEM great tools …great design!!

              @isazi how is the new firmware testing? Does it still look likely for general release this quarter?

                @isazi how do you know about the planification of a new firmware ? Do you work for Suunto ?
                I’m eager to see if you features arrive…or if I go to Garmin MK3 😉
                Regards.

                  All forum members are equal, but some are more equal than others.😉 You just have to lurk on the forum for a while and then you’ll read that the Ocean will see less frequent FW updates than the other models (stricter testing required for dive watches), but some/all (I don’t know) features rolled out to the other models will also come to the Ocean.

                        @Mauerwegler thank you for the advice.
                        However Ocean has the particularity to be a dive watch with specific features : we want some features that don’t exist on the others…such as customizable dive screen to have TTS/AI/NDL/dive time/depth (and maybe compass) on the same display.
