Thanks guys!! That’s awesome! Doesn’t look too bad the grey case and black band. I got a reply from Suunto stating an ‘All Black’ model of the SSWHR Baro was “a good idea, but no plans in the near future to announce new colours”

Alberto Yoldi

“all black” is really cool for an “every day” watch

sartoric

Yep, definitely

@sartoric customize-able price wont make you happy

sartoric

Yep, but I’m already done

At least there are some nice straps available now

aldnet

it’s a little offtopic of this topic but perhaps someone knows and I avoid to open a new one.

Do you know if SSSWHR straps are compatible with SSSWHR Baro ?

Because in the website straps from SSSWHR Baro are listed as compatible with SSSWHR, but visa versa no.

@aldnet yes, they are

sartoric

Baro -> Sport ?
Sport -> Baro ?
Or both ?

aldnet

@sartoric I understand @asdf123 is saying in both sides, isn’t it?

sartoric

I’m asking it because the BARO uses Quick release while sport doesn’t.
I guess Sport shouldn’t fit in Baro due to the shape of watch body, except the “special editions” ones (forest etc.)

aldnet

@sartoric yes, I understand.

In fact if I check the images:

Option 1:
http://www.suunto.com/es-ES/Productos/Correas/correas-para-suunto-spartan-sport-wrist-hr/Correa-de-silicona-para-Suunto-Spartan-Sport-Wrist-HR-Blue/
Seems not compatible

Option 2:
http://www.suunto.com/es-ES/Productos/Correas/correas-para-suunto-spartan-sport-wrist-hr/correa-de-silicona-para-suunto-spartan-sport-wrist-hr-forest-copper/
Seems compatible

Native Baro Strap:

Option 2 and Native one are very similiar, let’s see if @asdf123 could resolve our doubt.

I’ve purchased a couple of 24mm “regular” watch straps for my SSWHRBaro, and they fit fine. I did have to purchase stronger “pins”, but that was no problem. I’ve got a Carbon Fiber one, and a couple of woven nylon bands.

@oeagleo
I tried an Archer’s one.
The band itself was well made, but the pins were almost useless. I didn’t want to spend extra money for pins, so I returned it (amazon).

What did you buy ?

aldnet

In my case I’m speaking about official ones

I bought some “regular” pins, that weren’t quick disconnect, and they work fine, and then decided I would like the real quick disconnect ones so I ordered these. They havent come in yet, but by the measurements, they seem to be quite robust.

@oeagleo how you wil get to the release pin without making hole in the strap?

oeagleo

@SlaSh On the straps without the “hole”, I use the “regular” pins for the strap. A long time ago, I bought a “watchmakers repair kit” from E-bay, and it has a little forked tool to move the pins to remove them. Almost as easy as the quick release, so it’s no problem for me.
