In my case tje watch register all nights the sleeping as a nap, always are nap. So every morning it says 0:00h of sleeping. And it says 7:00h of NAP

In consequence my HRV is not working simce day one cos al my sleeping watch is registering as map

Lot of work to do in this watch/software man

[far-blue]

@dmcdmc Have you setup an auto-dnd time period for the times you are usually likely to be asleep?

[dmcdmc]

@far-blue

Yes, i have tried everything read in every post of the forum, also speaked with asistance and done a soft reset, nothing changed ) the only thing that I have not done is a hard reset.

Nothing of all tried changed ,my sleep is always registered as nap, so hrv is not working for this consequence

Thanks gor the input far-blue

Hi everyone, how do you create a training plan in the suunto race S in order to prepare for a specific race ? (E.g: 21km on the 8th of december). I heard it s common on Garmin and that s the only thing I really miss on this watch. Thank you !

[Tieutieu]

@Olivier-B this page of user manual should help

[suuntastic]

@wakarimasen do not have more. S9P already sold…

[Ars Vitae]

Could anyone recommend a good glass protection for this watch? I would be grateful for help.

[jjpaz]

@Ars-Vitae I’m using a glass protector for Fenix 7, it fits well.

@Ars-Vitae

I’m using this one. Fits perfekt, invisible:

@Reiner No problem with touch response?

No, response is normal.

[Ars Vitae]

@Reiner @jjpaz Thank you guys, I will try these Brotect, cheap, a few pieces in a pack and I came across them immediately looking for protection for Fenix 7.

[Dino Novak]

Can Suunto Race S use barometric sensor to display air / water temperature, like Garmin watches?

[isazi]

@Dino-Novak sure, but as with (almost) any sensor so close to your skin, data is not that reliable.

Got this Race s in July, it is clearly my best watch ever: compact, fast, beautifull, longlasting, precise and user friendly. Love the map when exploring randomly arround…

BUT… I scratched quite badly the screen of my race S on a rock while hiking in the alpine. It was really not a strong bump but I was enough for deep scratching the screen on 2 spots.
I did really regret that had no screen cover anymore because the one I bought was looking really bad during this summer it mad thh screen blurry
=> NEVER use this watch without screen protection in the alpine !
=> who has got a screen protector that looks good ?

Asked the Assistance about screen repair. They told me it is possible to replace.

What about the cost and delay ? does anyone have an experience here ?
(They didn’t answer me on the chat so I’am asking her to get to know more…)
Is tehr any chance to have it covered due to waranty ?

good luck, but if you don’t try you will never know you will need to open a real case, and discuss with real agents, and convince them that this scratch is due to Suunto’s fault

or wait and pray to have a serious bug/problem that will require an exchange.

I must admit that my new Race S has been very impressive so far (after 3 weeks). It’s working as expected, no crashes etc. Love it.

However I have to say, the OHR is just as ridiculously bad as my beloved S9B. It’s just awful. So I still need my Verity Sense or H10 strap for accuracy. I didn’t wear a strap this morning and the RS was reading up to 40 beats above my Apple Watch (which isn’t perfect either). Very disappointed in this aspect.

But overall it’s a very good partner for my Baro which I use for my mountain adventures.

[Brad_Olwin]

@Jeffrey-Tillack I would use the Suunto belt or another RR belt and take advantage of ZoneSense, a game changer for training.

[Jeffrey Tillack]

@Brad_Olwin yes, the OHR is a non-issue for me as I’ve always worn a heart rate strap. I think people get a little too “over the top” about optical sensors (imho). It’s fine for hiking and general day to day life. Maybe it’s my bony wrists it doesn’t like .

[Brad_Olwin]

@Jeffrey-Tillack OHR is not good for me either, I do not like wearing my watch on my forearm. The Race S can give me decent values while running but not consistently.
