Suunto 9 Ambassador Strap?

@Jonathan-Newby
I hope so, too… I’ve got the redbull strap and it is very comfortable, mainly because it does not “stick” like the (also very comfy) silicone strap

Lets make these available for purchase separately!

If you are after the comfort, why not just buy this?

If you want the flashy Suunto printed logo which nobody will see since it’s wrapped around your arm, then you’ll have to buy the ambassador titanium edition just to get the strap.

I don’t get why a normal person would want to wear something with a huge logo printed on it … first you pay extra for the product, then you are a walking commercial for the brand … seems illogical to any sane person. In a normal world the product would be discounted or you would get paid a monthly fee to wear it.

So yes, if you want the comfort, there is the same material strap in the store without the huge logo.

@fejker I really love the textile straps, but €60-€70 for the strap !?!?!
Sorry Suunto, a bit too much for me for a “simple” textile strap.

@fejker I agree on this logic 100%

However, look at the clothes from cyclists

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
I like some colors that make things not look just black… if there would be orange, yellow or some other colors textile strap I would consider buying one.

one of my cycling jersey is blue and bright yellow without brand or commercials, but it’s true this is not easy to find

Just look at everything you wear nowadays with a visible brand on it

@surfboomerang If you think it’s an unnecessary expense, you can always buy something universal with a width of 24 mm.

fejker

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos yes, that is why I get those cycling jerseys at a discount.

@Maryn Yep, always look at third party manufacturers. The 9 series owners are lucky to have a standard width and mounting.
I just received a red, blue and black replacement strap for my Spartan Ultra from China … works like a charm and costs 10 € per strap compared to the original boring 50 € per strap from Suunto which only comes in black/stealth/white fort the SSU.

@TELE-HO, something like this?

Well, the colour straps looks quite yellow on the photo, in fact they are more orange.
I bought it on AliExpress for 2$ with shipping…

Tough crowd lol.

I dig it, different strokes for different folks.

How much cooler does this look compared to the original.
I haven’t tried the blue one yet, but it’s just refreshing to see some new color.

And I kept the original black buckle ecause the replacements came with a silver one and this just looks better with the Titanium Black model.
