2 problems with Suunto Vertical at once : Buttons and screen
-
Dear All,
I have for the first time a serious quality problem with my Suunto Vertical watch… not just 1 but 2 problems at the same time. Obviously, this appears 2.5 months after the end of the 2-year warranty.
It seems my watch didn’t survive my last 8-minute swim because the next day, I wanted to use it and I noticed two problems :
-
Pressing the “up” button performs the actions “up” and then “confirm” (SV_up.mp4 ). Pressing the “confirm” button performs the actions “up” and then “confirm” (SV_confirm.mp4 ). I tried a software reset as well as a hard reset but it did not solve the problem.
-
Three air bubbles have appeared under the glass. It looks like it’s starting to come unglued.
The bubbles aren’t a problem for use, but they’re visually unappealing. On the other hand, the button issue is very annoying to navigate the menus.
Has anyone else encountered either of these problems? I seem to recall seeing a post on the forum where someone shared a photo of the bubbles, but I haven’t been able to find it.
Thank you for reading.

For the problem #1, have you tried a soft reset? 12/15 s upper button?
For #2 aren’t you using a screen protector? -

For #1 : Yes, I did a soft reset and also a hard reset.
For #2 : No, I don’t have a screen protector. The bubbles are under the glass, on the crown where the minute markers are.
