Suunto Race S titanium
-
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? -
@VoiGAS just the look, like you mentioned the color and bezel look very appealing to me.
The standard Race S already looks pretty amazing, but what I saw from the pictures so far, I would appreciate the Titanium even more. -
and you all are sure that we dont have saphire glas on top!?
-
@GiPFELKiND I thought I would have a problem to step down from sapphire on the 9P. But the Race S glass feels much better on touch control and collects less fingerprints in my opinion. Also regardind to a comparsion with the Race (Sapphire) the Race S screen is more vibrant.
So maybe the Gorilla Glas is a step up - not down - for an AMOLED touchscreen. -
@VoiGAS yes, after owning it for a few days, it feels so good and looks so good! Coming from S9P Race S way more easy touch and kreps cleaner
-
@suuntastic I guess they are waiting for Fenix 8 and Apple Watch releases to settle before dropping this watch.
