      Dear All,
      as per subject, did any of you test the Ocean for running ??? and i mean long run (more than 30/40KM…) in terms of GPS accuracy, battery and alike ?
      I am very inclined in refershing my S9Baro and really like the Ocean, with its potential.

      I am a lot into running, trailrun and seldom snorkelling

      Thanks to all

        @Argo320 It is identical to the Race but why not get the Race instead. Lighter and can snorkel to 10m. Ocean is a much heavier watch, if you will occasionally SCUBA dive it is a good choice.

          @Brad_Olwin thanks for the answer, you right, but also i put a lot of hope that the Ocean could become a flagship in Suunto…so i am very tempted 🙂

          In anycase thanks !

            @Argo320 It is a flagship! I think the best looking watch and has all of Race features for other sports. I prefer the buttons to the crown as well, especially when wearing gloves so you cannot go wrong. For many field testers it is their favorite watch. Actually thinner than the Vertical and just 1mm thinner than the Race. I think the Ocean fits best of the large watches. I get better OHR than Race or Vertical because of that.

                @Argonaut330 Now Steel Black or All Black? A friend has the Steel Black and I like that better than All Black, which I have.

                    @Argonaut330 Steel Black also seems more scratch-free friendly! Waiting for pics if You order!

                      If you are not a diver, I do not recommend getting the Ocean. Suunto sells far more running and multi-sport watches than dive computers. This means the Ocean sells in lower volumes and is unlikely to receive the same level of attention from Suunto. As a result, you may get fewer updates, fewer new features, and a higher price.

                      Finally, my Ocean got scratched on the first dive.

                          @diogao13 said in Ocean for Running ? Anyone ?:

                          Finally, my Ocean got scratched on the first dive.

                          for scuba diving I think a screen protector would be definitely a good idea, quite easy to get scratches on the rocks / reefs

                            As promised, here we are with few pics.
                            I spent few hrs playing with it with some personal modification and also in trying to understand how to use this beast !!

                            Looks really really good, everything worked very smooth so far, mobile app sync, update, wifi, playing with watch-faces, sport modes customization settings and alike…due to the nature of my work i find myself quite often in China and i have also downloaded the maps for Zhengzhou…more to come on this topic 🙂
                            Quick one: i think the Ocean is not compatible anylonger with Suuntolink correct ? i have tried also soft reset but didn’t work.

                            Other than that chat soon, and tomorrow first run 🙂

                              @Argonaut330 Congrats on your purchase. Awesome device!
                              It connects only to Suunto app, no SuuntoLink.

                                      Suunto Link is for older Suunto watches. New one update by smartphone app. Nice combo, have a nice adventures! I regret there’s no orange strap with white Suunto label like that :D. There is Athletic 6 but i dont like.
