Happy Birthday Suunto (90years)
-
@duffman19 I do not know what Suunto will do with the watch face. I guess we will have to wait and see.
-
@Brad_Olwin It’s clear what their plan is, but I suppose that could change. I can’t imagine having an exclusive watch face, especially one so many people seem to like, will go down well with existing customers.
-
@Goatee No, The watchface comes for all the new Suunto Watches
-
@Doron-G At least this watchface proves they can create complications with legible fonts (looks at the font size above the time).
Now imagine they got rid of the seconds bar around the edge, so much room for large, legible complications!
Watch: Suunto Race S
-
@duffman19 Not sure I can cope with this.
-
@duffman19 hmm, if that’s going to be true then it’s a major bummer.

it’s a replica of the Vector dial, it’s a tribute, it’s perfect as it is in my opinion

The only misgiving I have is that I first saw the US webshop page for it, which tells you to preorder this limited edition right now while the EU webshops tell you that you’ll be able to buy it from March 10.
I’m not sure there remain enough die-hard Suunto fans to even sell all the 1936 of these, but I’d still be tempted.
I’m at at least 25 years of Suunto use. -

Now I’m not so sure whether @egika was kidding or not…
The text says “currently”. Which is true.

Currently or suuntoish?
Couldn’t resist… -

I guess I’ll stop speculating, then. I prefer analog watch faces anyway.
-
@OutdoorMan yep!
“We hear you! The Vertical 2 Titanium Limited Edition watch face is currently exclusive, but feedback like yours is shared with our product team it helps us consider making it available for more users in the future”
That was their response
-
@Steven-Hambleton oh yes
-
@Stefano-M64 I don’t mean to change that watch face, just showing they have scope to make watch faces with larger complication fonts.
-
@Egika When are we going to get it?
-
@Frederick-Rochette soon?
sorry, have no idea about release plans or times. All I know is that I can order my anniversary V2 on March 10…
-
Suunto sent am email about this anniversary edition, and there they told that preorder is possible… but there’s no possibly for a preorder in German store… but I found a preorder button in us store… why is there a difference?
-
@SuperFlo75 I mentioned that before. Even Suunto on Instagram recommends pre-ordering immediately, but that’s only possible in the US webstore.
Seems to be a common case of different parts of a company taking different approaches…

@GiPFELKiND Someone on Reddit seems to have taken a much closer look:
Quote: “Pre-Orders in EU only for UK, Ireland, Gibraltar, Guernsey, Jersey, Isle of Men, Finnland, Schweden, Dänemark, Farör-Islands, Norway and Island.”
Makes me really wonder, since that (plus the CS reply) means that we might not be unlucky with the limited edition because of preorders or their unavailability, “only” because Suunto allocated those LE watches badly…
