      Hello,

      i found a similar case at the vertical watch forum but i have a problem with my Suunto 9 Peak Pro.
      At the bottom of the watch where the sensors are, there are some kind of bubbles and the plastic peels off? Anybody has the same problem? I wonder if this is in the guarantee of the watch, I can´t say if it affects the sensors… but i think this shouldn´t be…

        @macpen Contact support. Your OHR will be affected. The watch should be repaired/replaced.

            @GiPFELKiND Just a wild guess. Can certain suncream cause this issue?
            A while ago we had a bottle at home which caused a similar reaction on the plastic frame of my sunglasses.

              @surfboomerang could be… But a military tested watch will break because of little bit sun Lotion?! Dont believe that. Its definitely a repair case!!! When i am back from croatia in Germany.

                    @Elipsus absolutely not normal, cannot understand why anyone would tell you that. Unless you did something wrong to your watch, this is a production defect and you should tell support

                          Personally I do not like sensor design. The pins are noticeable on skin. Little uncomfortable on S9P. The charging should be separate and the sensor material does not feel premium. I do like the new Garmin design way more with a flat glass plate (not using Garmin), Suunto favorite watch. hope we see something else someday…

                            Short update, sent my watch to suunto on 12/07/23. DHL Express shipment was pretty fast. Repair would take about 20 Working days, but nothing happend since then… on 27/07/23 I´ve got a mail from suunto because of the delay of the repair:

                            “Due to a high volume of repairs, we are unable to repair your product at the time agreed…” but no details about how long de delay will be.

                            Not really happy with it, but yeah…

                                  @zhang965 what are you talking about ? I’m proud to be French (and thus enjoy around 37 days off per year) and regularly take 3 weeks together during the summer (its even mandatory to take at least 2 weeks in the summer), but when I do, its planned, and If some project are going to take longer because of my holidays, i, at the very least, give an rough timeline to my clients/project manager…that’s the usual for most people I think, european or not

                                  The problem here is the lack of date, and lack of warning, just sending “sorry we’re late” after 25 days is not a great communication, but at least they gave an update ^^

                                    @Elipsus we usually say Finland is closed in august. Summer is short there, the schedule is tight to fit everyone’s holidays.

                                      @halajos Finland is mostly closed in July, not August. Right now there are lots of sad people returning to their normal weekly routines. Even the public swimming pools are opening again after being closed for the July.

                                        I have also this problem with my S9PP watch. Quality of watch seems to be little “questionable”
