    If you don’t see something like this after you take your watch off, it’s too loose.

    Also, as others mentioned, have ohr on (workout start screen) during your preparation, warmup, etc. 5 minutes before hitting “start” should be enough.

    Shaving wrist also helps but for some people it’s too hardcore 😉

        @andrasveres yeah I’ve heard about some furry runners that have problems with chest straps but I was referring to the original poster 😉

        As with hr strap - I’d check the battery first or maybe the belt is worn out.

          @Łukasz-Szmigiel Just kidding. 😉
          Regarding the strap: battery change was the first thing done, with no result. Planning to buy a Polar H10 as Suunto straps tend to start fail in no time.
          Sorry for the off topic.

                Had the same experience too. Have a Ssu and have to use hr belt. If you want a precise measurement use a hr belt. I had 2 suunto hr belts and - excuse me - they are rubbish. Suunto can’t that. So I bought a H10 and I’m pretty satisfied. No problems at all. It’s worth the money if you want reliable hr data

                  @Stefan-Kersting there are new belts and improved ones though. If you still have a warranty ask for a replacement. They are white on the sensor buckle.

                    @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos ok then my comment applies just the older ones. Don’t have experience with the new ones. I don’t have warranty any more but happy with the polar 😊

                        New belts have a different problem, they evaporate quickly from suunto store.

                          @lexterm77 yes and manufacturing is slow due to Corona. Difficult times for EU factories etc

                                    I have not read all advices you got, but eventually try to wear your watch on the other wrist. Maybe blood flows are better.

                                      @Mff73 This afternoon, I wore a watch on my right wrist and the problem was solved.
                                      Thank you all!
