Suunto 9 Peak

[pilleus]

@lexterm77 I had the same issue. The process to order the S9P was successfull after three trials … timeout and other error messages stopped it several times and after reloading the page there was no button to order the S9P. I think the server was a kind of overloaded …

@pilleus

I had to call in and push the woman who was in Canadian Office

this article mentions no deep sleep feature for s9b, yes it has deep sleep feature.

[DMytro]

@lexterm77 it’s false on few minor details, as it for example also states that s9b doesn’t have fusedtrack

Can snap to route be used as a track mode?

[Dimitrios Kanellopoulos]

@prenj nope unfortunately. But keep in mind that most track based modes will awlays show you running at the line you defined (which is ok). That also means that if you do a different line you need to change that, even if it’s recovery. That said I most welcome a track mode , from Suunto, that just doesn’t do the GPS pretty but rather mark the laps better. But that is also already happening in most of the track and field conditions (open tracks).

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos

Also no pre order button yet

[A Former User]

@lexterm77 You mean the US? I thought Canadian lady has sorted you out. The pre-orders are available in Mexico. Maybe I should plan a trip there and pick the watch up while at it. Just got a handful of Caribbean vacation emails…

How much is titanium version resistant to scratches?

[surfboomerang]

@dulko79 until it has scratches

All jokes aside, there are different grades of titanium. Without exact specs it’s hard to tell I’m afraid.
But maybe an expert can tell us more.

@nickk

I was referring to s9b purchase when it came out, pre order button did not exist. Same problem now, why should I ping pong between voice mails when I should just click pay and wait!

[dulko79]

@surfboomerang that’s why I am asking.

[A Former User]

@lexterm77 No argument there. It’s as if Suunto didn’t want our money

@dulko79 YMVV. My nearly 3 year old titanium S9B is like new, though admittedly it is almost exclusively used for street and simple trail running, nothing drastic. Only a few weeks of daily wear in total.

My Fenix 6X Solar has a number of scruffs, mostly invisible, after about 4 months of daily use and training, but this is due to it being silver bezel variant.

My Vertix Space Gray, on the other hand, has several scratches after just a month of daily use and training. Apparently, DLC isn’t all it’s cracked out to be.

No, I’m not a person who hits the walls and other obstacles with their watches… On a typical day.

Bottom line: if you get black or painted titanium, even DLC, expect scratches. Same goes for silver version, but scruffs will be far less visible there. Titanium doesn’t really offer much in terms of protection, more like less weight.
