For France they are open. Shipping on 17th of June.

@andré-faria Same goes for The Netherlands

@andrejsg If you are asking about US and Canada, my guess is after the Memorial Day weekend. On one hand, there’s a big sale going on on existing models. On the other, Suunto probably wants to give the rest of the world an opportunity to pre-order theirs before people like myself lay claim to the entirety of the first few production batches…

[andrejsg]

@nickk Yeah I guess it makes sense for it to go live after memorial day. Here’s what I’m seeing:

@andrejsg We are seeing exact same thing So, the reality is… real. Hopefully, that nice pre-order button is finally shown in coming days.

Also, I remember Suunto 7 could also be pre-ordered on Amazon, if it helps.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos What are the correct Measurements? The description says 43 x 43 x 10.6 mm but from the picture the thickness should be 13 mm link text.

[andrejsg]

@nickk just pre-ordered mine yesterday

@wotus I am not sure

@wotus According to The5kRunner review, it seems to depend on whether the OHR sensor is included or not.

@soojong-moon Weird the thickness of the suunto 9 baro

Another question. Did anyone know if S9P has an updated CPU compared to S9b?

I assume a new processor has been added (less power consume and higher capacity) but I could be wrong

@mff73 OK.
It seems very strange to me to measure an element without taking part of this element into account !

It is a point of view, effectively.
Personnaly (and I never had a watch with OHR… yet), but I feel like the sensor is expected to “press into the skin” (sorry for this expression ), and the real thickness of the watch (seen when worn) is more like measuring without this sensor.
So, marketing new measures, or new reference, result is to compare apples to apples.

@mff73 I agree. You can’t really add sensor protrusion to the overall thickness, because it really isn’t a part of the watch profile on your wrist. I know it’s splitting hairs (and tattoos), but as with moles, it’s what’s above your skin that matters

@nickk
In a better English… Yes

[Rob33]

@mff73 Yes it can be heard. In fact it is the data available on the SUUNTO site that is confusing …

Watching the review of Joaquin this view seems to me a bit “flatter” in the peak compare to the baro, isn’t it? The screenshot I took is not the best so I put a blue line. Minute 9:27 in this video

[surfboomerang]

@bulkan Maybe the scale is somewhat different, but I do see a similar pattern in both tops. I don’t think the data is diffent.

Watching a little bit further at 9:35, I noticed the bug I reported here is solved in the S9 peak! The sun icon is now visible against a white background. Hope it comes to the S9B too.
