Suunto Race 2 General Discussion

-
@tas2581 my Race 2 is also scratched. I managed to scratch it outside somewhere on a rock. But I don’t mind, it’s a tool and it is always going to get scratched sooner or later, you will get used to it.

Does a Suunto without any little scratch has lived enough adventures !? You have 30’ minutes to write your thoughts !

(Joke appart : both my SV1 and SRs have scratches on bezels, but not a single one on screen. And considering all they have suffered, those are very little scratches)
-
I had quite big white scratch next to Suunto (near baro sensor). I polished it with my thumb like 5 minutes or more, and scratch is like 95% less visible, i can barely see it.
Titanium version. -
watch is not an tool it is unique and most important acessory of a men.
Probably you have more than one watch if considering your suunto as an working hammer or working axe and dont need your watch beatifull and eyecatchig, is’n it? I have only one, for workouts and for romantic dinners. Maybe you can explain purpose of micro-textured surface of bezel? I see only one reason, to make it more brilliant and more attractive for potential client, sacrificing surface durability of “this tool”
Where are you want to go with macro fotos of scratches and 30 minutes???

I have a good sex, wild, nice and almost every day many times twice per day, so no place for insatisfaction, I’m happy
.
was always happy with Race1, Suunto9 Baro, Saprtan, Abit2, Ambit, T6C, T3C and T6.
I have little scratches on Race1 and these are invisible, watch looks perfect for an accessory and for an working tool after 2 years of everyday use, drops and hundreds of impacts.
But I’m not happy with Race2
with pricing, quality, materials, perfomance and now with durability. -
@Tami999 you have diamond thumbs !

-
Scratches are visible bothering myself. Much more visible due to the microtexturized surface of bezel.
Any solution for cold blackening of titanium or how to remove black patination without abrasives and potential damages? -
@tas2581 then a titanium watch is not for you, as it will simply scratch easily. That would be the case if you would have just one mechanical tanium watch as well. I know what you mean - men don’t have juwerly, our only accessories are watches, but this is a sports watch … you’ll do with this watch other things that you would with a mechanical watch - wear it in mountains, in a rugged environment, etc. Expecting to not get a scratch from a sports watch is like expecting to not get scratches on a beautiful sports car when you park it just outside on the street, where it belongs. Just my two cents

Is there a way to set up notifications to only vibrate and not have a tone?
I’m aware of the settings: General -> Tones -> Buttons off / All on / All off.
I would prefer to have it set to “Buttons off” so I can have tones during an activity, but vibrate only for when a notification comes through.

Lately, I’ve seen more people selling their second-hand R2 watches.

@Alpha-156.42 to be honest I was trying to sell mine, nobody wanted it so I decided to keep it. There are so many Suunto watches online available for sale in my country, I was very surprised.
