    Hi, there is a problem with measuring distance in open water swimming. I just bought Suunto Ocean, I have been using Spartan Ultra for 6 years, mainly ocean swimming over 4000 times. I compared Suunto Ocean with two other computers, how they handle ocean swimming and the results are surprising https://youtu.be/WLeTcv6Fqxw?si=b0ZBoaW8zeVbFK_l , Ocean was the worst… Ocean has a software problem. I tried 7 times, the results are always wrong.

      @Arturro There is a answer to the question: “Measured distance in swimming is wrong”. Summary of Suunto Ocean tests, after the update 2.36.18. Tests for 9 days and at the end a summary of the discrepancies in Excel.

          @Egika I can’t tell you how delighted I would be if this arrived before 0600 Pacific Honolulu time, on the 21st. The ‘big’ firmware update arrived for my Vertical literally as I was about 5km of the start of a nice, long hike in Scotland, so I’m available for a repeat of that.

            @EzioAuditore What keeps me out of buying the Ocean (Vertical Amoled and without wheel), are exactly the same things you say:

            • Climb Guidance
            • Zonesense

            With the development already done and after the waiting period of further testing, I understand that those things will probably be pushed on 2024 Q4.

            Then the yet pending bug fixes I posted for the rest of the watches (no need to duplicate posts):

              @dreamer_ Sure but as I stated in other posts and since I own the 3 latest releases of Suunto watches. The Ocean has been the most reliable so far (except of the missing race/lactate predictions - this though I think is due to the fact I never run without a belt). One should note that I mostly use the Ocean mostly for ground activities and very little for water 🙂

              Suunto watches: Ocean (Sand), Race (Titanium Charcoal), Vertical (Titanium Solar Sand), 9 Baro (Ambassador Edition), Spartan Ultra (Copper Edition), Ambit 2, S6

                @EzioAuditore I can confirm about reliability. Race prediction works on my Ocean but as per Suunto is a bit too optimistic especially with the longer distances.

                I suspect it doesn’t include the Lactate Threshold algorithm licensed to the Race which looks like the only watch to have it—if anyone knows.

                Current: Ocean, Vertical Titanium Solar
                Past: 9 Baro, Spartan Ultra, Ambit3 Peak Sapphire

                  Bonjour,
                  (je suis français, désolé pour la traduction).

                  Je vais remplacer ma Scubapro Galileo luna par une montre ordinateur.

                  La SUUNTO OCEAN disposant de la fonction boussole, est-il possible de bloquer un cap (bloquer un cap en français) en appuyant sur un bouton ou la fonction boussole ne permet pas cette fonction pour le moment ?

                  Et quelles autres fonctions sont visibles en même temps que la fonction boussole ?

                  Merci pour vos réponses

                      @RIKO14 bonjour pas possible de bloquer le cap pour l’instant.
                      On voit les degrés et la flèche qui indique la direction.

                        maybe asking in English will improve the probability of answers
