so long as one was Garmin and was connected last
First just let Garmin identify the two BT channels, and then disable any attempt to connect with them. No need to wait in the wings for a special connection order

From my experience if you connect the Garmin before the others, it takes one of the Bluetooth connections. Then you can’t connect one of the other (Bluetooth only) watches.

@wakarimasen Garmin have always given complete control over how the connections are handled, at least from 2013 when I first used one of their products - them being FR620, FR630, Fenix5X and FR955. Walkthrough for a Forerunner 955 (running slightly old FW; they’ve probably changed the the menu wordings slightly now) with a new Polar H10:
- Put on the strap (slightly moist for better connection.
- Hold ‘Menu’ button of FR955.
- Choose “Sensors & Accessories”.
- “Auto Discover” can be at the “Off” position for the next step.
- Choose “Add New” --> “External HR”.
- “Searching for sensor.” is displayed.
- “Sensors Found” “HR - 08.93.F2.A6.F8” displayed (for my first BT channel). “Select to Add”.
- Do select…
- Now the above named sensor turns up in the list as “Connected”.
- Click on that listing…
- Click on the word “Connected” and it immediately switches to “Off”.
- In that entry you can also give the BT channel a more comprehensive name, e.g. ‘Polar-BT1-H10’.
From now on (unless you turn it on, of course) the FR955 will never connect to that BT channel again. Perform the same step with the second BT channel when you’ve turned it on with a Polar app. I can’t remember if Garmin choose to ‘find’ the ANT+ broadcast before Bluetooth, but it is easily identified as using only a simple digits ID, whole numbers no seperations. In such a case (it being connected), turn it to the “Off” state before searching for BT channels.

@Luis-Andés-Olmedo he is in contact with Suunto that is trying to understand why it does not seem to work for him. So good news.
