    @pavlas looks ok to me.
    But both “hairy graph” plus “shaking leads to altitude change” makes me think the baro sensor is influenced by movement.
    Maybe something loose inside (either parts of the sensor or debris).
    This is nothing you could probably repair yourself. If soaking the watch and flushing it under running water does not help, I would send it in for service…

      @egika Thanks! I’ll try a few more cleanings in water and night bath.
      I’ll try a baby toothbrush (hopefully my daughter won’t see me).
      And just to be sure, I’ll ask again - should I use the brush to clean only the holes or reach inside the hole?

        @pavlas I never reach inside, just clean the holes.

          when she sees you, next time you say: go and brush your teeth, she’s cleaning her watch 😉
          …sensitive question regarding putting things into the baro holes… I have a very soft toothbrush (similar to kids toothbrushes) and cleaned the holes without thinking how deep the brushes go… I assume it does not harm.
          In my simple imagination sand grains entering this holes are more harmful than a baby toothbrush. I use my watch for surfing… and with the wipeout a lot of sand is swirled, too. (usually I wipeout more than I surf…)

            really? but the sensor sits so close to the holes… I suspect that I reached it more than once with the soft tips of the brush

            EDIT:
            here’s to imagine how soft my watch cleaning brush is 😉

              @freeheeler meaning I don’t push the bristles inside forcefully, they probably reach inside a little bit though.

                @freeheeler official statement will always be: “do never put anything into the holes”
                And recommending to do so is maybe not the best idea.
                Even if your toothbrush is the softest on earth…

                So let’s keep it a “don’t reach inside with anything”, you have no idea what people do…

                    …like: scratch the dirt off the sensor with a rusty needle… 😱
                    agreed: don’t reach inside!

                    actually soaking and rinsing should be sufficient

                      If the brush is soft, you clean it softly, the life is soft, and soft is soft, everything will be fine … and soft

                      Usually a couple of warm bath solve the issue
