Suunto Race S titanium
-
The one in this video is made in China.
So maybe it’s only released in the Asian markets for now? Maybe EU/USA to be made in Finland and released later? Just speculating.
Also looks like it comes with an Athletic 5 strap in a new color way, which is nice. I prefer these over the other Athletic straps as they seem to be softer.
-
@Antoine It has been officially released, at least here in China Mainland I could pre-order directly.
I think @duffman19 is right, this could be manufactured in different places just like the Race S, so there might be different release dates for different markets. -
@HankWang is there a sapphire glass ?
-
@Antoine Unfortunately no. Otherwise I would have placed the order already…
-
@HankWang only titanium, quite useless
-
I’ve been using the SRs pretty intensely the past two month in parallel with my SV, mostly in mountain (trail running, hiking…). Gorilla glass works pretty well, not scratches for now
-
@Antoine I’m using a tempered glass protector (Fenix 7 standard fits very well)
-
This keyframe from the Suunto Instagram page looks like the SRs Ti to me - slightly lighter, brushed gray case and the new UTMB band.
But the linked video doesn’t show or mention the model at all. So I’m guessing it’s at least available to see at their UTMB tent, just not available for purchase yet? Kind of a bummer. And I’m guessing we won’t see it for sale this week, outside of China, since they haven’t teased it anywhere.
-
@duffman19 The testers rarely test variants of watch models. We test prior to release of the watch and continuously test firmware, where it does not matter whether titanium or steel.
-
@Brad_Olwin Ok… I wasn’t questioning whether testers had the Ti model, just wondering when it will be made available outside of China. It’s obviously out there… and I want one!
-
@HankWang said in Suunto Race S titanium:
@ferns No sapphire, sadly.
Well, then let’s keep our fingers crossed for a great price
-
@ferns 3599 RMB like mentioned above would be 450€. Not such a great price 🫤
-
Any news about the release? Week is almost over.
-
-
Any updates on the release of the Titanium version?
Someone knows something? -
@daveathletic my local store finally has it listed, but it’s not available for order yet. it’s a matter of 1/2 weeks usually…
-
@ferns thank you, that gives hope at least, can’t wait for it to launch
-
How does this work at Suunto? Do they not have the same product line world wide? I’m just wondering as the Titanium version is, at least it looks like that on some socials, is already available in China but not in Europe.
I’m in kind of a small dilemma, well not particularly, but I don’t wanna buy a Race S and then see in 2 weeks or something that they have released a Titanium one. Is there anyone here who can give updates, news,…
Thanks for your answers. -
@daveathletic there is no doubt that the titanium version will arrive. So If I where you I would wait, whatever it last (considering it should arrive before end of year according to every informations that have been collected)
-
@Tieutieu thanks for your reply, yes, I’m having the same feeling, just very impatient
Well, hoping that they drop it soon. -
@daveathletic May I ask why? Titanium will be 100€ plus and this is in relation to 7g weight less ( and the normal Race S is already very light)
Or is it about the color of the bezel?
