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

      @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 😂 .

        @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.

          Hi all, I bought Suunto Race S today. To my disappointment, I found that the vibration of the watch is significantly louder vs. Race or Vertical. For me, it’s too noisy. Can anyone tell me if this is normal or not? Otherwise, really happy with the watch.

            @laismaniko I’ve never had a Race or a Vertical but I can say the Race S is less loud when vibrating than my 5 Peak was. Noting that the Race S is smaller and lighter than the Race or Vertical if Suunto used the same unit in all three it would make sense it would be more apparent in the S because there’s less mass/bulk to vibrate.

                  Is it possible to create strength training functionality in suunto app and into watches? muscle maps, exercises?

                    perhaps in the future it will be possible to build a route to the points (POI) ?

                      seriously? the Titan doesn’t have sapphire glass? 😡

                        @Sportsfreund yes. Race S has Gorilla glass.
                        Has been discussed before.
                        Titanium saves almost 10g of weight.

                          @Egika kinda makes the usecase for having titanium pointless. Just like how garmin did with the 965 - titanium frame handicapped by a cheap gorilla glass. So much for durability!

                              @altcmd again. Titanium is not there for ruggedness. Screen material is independent from body material.
                              All Verticals for example have Sapphire regardless of steel or TI body.
                              All Race S have Gorilla Glass regardless of steel or TI.

                              BTW. I have just ordered my TI Race S this morning. It will arrive tomorrow 🥳

                                @Egika clearly - aesthetics over practicality.

                                      @Sportsfreund I don’t get the fuzz.
                                      Have been wearing Race S steel with the same glass since February. Also for rock climbing, via ferrata etc.
                                      No scratch whatsoever on the glass.
                                      If I hadn’t tested the steel version successfully, I would not have gotten the TI

                                          ordered the Race S for my wife, too.
                                          I am very convinced by this model and its value to money ratio.
                                          I’ve been using my one a lot, too in the past months and it’s still looking brand new.
