Suunto watches to come in 2024
-
@raceaddict I don’t know if you are disappointed or not, but in my opinion the Apex is really well assembled and lightweight. I currently own an all-plastic Coros Pace 3 and it is such a joy to use that now I refuse to wear heavy, bulky watches. That said, I really hope the Race S is similar to the Apex in terms of materials and assembly (something between 30-40g), with all the goodness of Suunto inside.

@cjanevate I’m waiting to see it in real before being disappointed
-
@raceaddict Hi, I’d be interested in seeing some HD images, if you can give me a link, thank you.
-
Calculating numbers I realize that, if the Race has a 1.43" screen with a 49mm diameter, this possible Race S, with a supposed 1.32" screen, should be around 46mm (45mm at least).
49mm - (1.43"-1.32") = 46.20mm
Wow, maybe for tiny wrists like mine, it will still be too big. (Bad for me, good for my wallet).

@enriqueescoms In the fcc documents it is said a bezel of 43mm

Well if finally (as that information indicates) it is 43mm, several things:
· Incredible job by Suunto for fitting a very good screen size into such a compact body.
· Perfect for my small wrist/presbyopia combination
· Highly dangerous for my wallet.
Although the fact is that taking proportions from the image (taking for certain two known data: 22mm strap width and 1.32" screen size) I get approximate measurements of 44mm bezel, 45mm case and 47.5mm L2L . But who knows…
-
I like it! What’s the purpose of the four studs on the bezel?
-
@Josaiplu A nice smokey, matte titanium back with a brushed stainless bezel would be cool, from a purely aesthetic point of view.
-
Based on competitors’ dimensions, a 1.3" screen corresponds to an Apex Pro with a 46mm case. A 1.2" screen corresponds to a Pace 2 with a 42mm case.
If Suunto has optimized the size of the Race S as well as it has with the Race. We can expect this 1.32" screen to fit into a 45mm case maximum. Which is exactly the size I’m looking for. Perfect
-
@ADidier It’s pretty well confirmed that it’ll be 43mm according to the FCC filing. Although I suppose exactly where and how it’s measured could change that.
-
@duffman19 When I compare with my current Pace 2 I don’t know how they will put a 1.32" screen in a 43 mm chassis
-
@ADidier I did my little analysis on the dimensions from HD image.
Starting from the screen which is 1.32" (33.5mm), I measured that the bracelet is about 22 mm and the case is about 44 mm without the wheel.

@TitaniumDave four what?

I didn’t get it either! -
In this mockup someone made here, the bezel has four studs. I asked what they are for, functionally.
-
@TitaniumDave It isn’t a Race S but a 2017 Suunto Spartan Sport

This one is the sswhr baro amber
-
@TitaniumDave old Suunto device. Has nothing to do with any upcoming watch.
Plus to answer your question: those 4 studs are design elements, no function
