Bezel Replacement
-
@freeheeler not so sure. Titanium has different expansion coefficient than steel, might be significant enough to force small changes hardwarewise.

I do not think so, I’m quite sure (from my experience designing parts) that the case and the fixation system of all the bezels are the same, then the gaskets do the proper seal. For the official temperature use range I think that the differences in dimensions are really small.
-
@cosmecosta you are probably right! My main concern would lie in screws and screw holes being affected by different expansion coefficient. I looked it up, difference is about 10% which is not that significant.

Adding another question to this one, if for some reason you need a bezel replacement because got so many scratches of hard use or accidentally you droped the S9 and there is a visible and ugly thing in the bezel that you can’t stand watching and want a new shiny bezel, same or different model (if compatible), does this means that what you are paying for this replacement is goint to be nearly the full cost of a new S9?
-
@rhustox
you are not allowed to replace the bezel for a shinier one before your bezel looks like…

Damn!

@rhustox
yeah… I had to save this pic when some friends in here posted it to remind myself whenever I think my watch is being used heavily… I might be wrong

Only support or an official reapir center will be able to tell you.
For portugal and spain, the repair center, in 2020 had the price of 50-60eur for the S9.
Price list here. I don’t know if it is need to add any other cost. -
@andré-faria what does “upgrade” mean? Trade-in program?
-
@andré-faria nice find! Thank you!

I am not sure . You have to ask. But I believe is a bit like that. If I remember correctly when I had the positive display core, and it was replaced on warranty and I asked for negative display one, I think they gave me that price.
-
@andré-faria I see, thanks.

That looks frickin’ awesome !!
-
FYI - I contacted support. They replied stating neither bezel replacement nor trade-in were possible. I had linked to the price list @André-Faria posted in my request, but no dice. Maybe those options are only available for warranty requests?
-
didn’t we have a Suunto repair price list?
Just searched for it but didn’t find it…
Suunto gods punish me now for asking too many times for lock buttons… now they hardly move
Since I love the X-Alps and need to wait for S9P XL
, I would like to have them repaired. -
@freeheeler You mean this list?
https://misuunto.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Tarifa-Enero-2020-Publico-SSP.pdfI’ve seen an English version of the list but couldn’t find right now
Suunto Vertical Titanium Solar
OnePlus Nord 4 -
@surfboomerang
looks like the list I have once seen, or similar, thank you
… unfortunately no button replacement mentioned 
I’ll get in touch with service then 
-
@surfboomerang
…non habla Espanol… does tactile mean buttons? display, buttons and bezel… 180€?
I want buttons only
-
@freeheeler My Spanish is also a bit rusty, but I believe tactile can be translated to touchscreen.
“Pulsadores” are the buttons I believe. So €30 if I read it correctly.No idea if those are international prices though…
