Sensors full of Bubbles, Plastic peels off.

@freeheeler thanks for your answer but I am quite sure we’ll face the same issue again!
See the experiences of some users on this forum: After returning their watches and had the sensor/back of the watch changed (of even a new watch!), bubbles developed again a couple of weeks later!As long as Suunto does not change its material/cheap plastic to cover the back of their watches, we’ll have the same problem again.
So this is why an “official” communication from Suunto, regarding the importance of this issue and the number of users affected, would be appreciable ! -

ok, but you don’t know when you don’t try

I’ve been using my Vertical 24/7 from the end of May. I wash it with liquid soap every evening and it has been in contact with sunscreen many times but have no bubbles. Sunscreen is made for kids so no parfume in it. I don’t know if it has anything to do with peeling. Serial starts with 2315. Just wanted to share my experience so far.

#2318 also. Everything’s fine with my SV. I wear it h24 since last may, including for swimming in the sea or swimming pool. I frequently keep it under shower to wash it. Also Went to a spa and sauna with it. No issue.
Same for my wife’s S9pp, no issue.Suunto’s devices at home :

@Tieutieu
same here, all good with our watches. we use sunscreen, pool swimming, activities in the ocean, sweat, shower etc… -
and with my SV #2319 everything was fine until I went to sea after 3 months of use) now it reboots cyclically. But there are no bubbles.

@Tieutieu : Which serial number for your wife’s S9PP?
@ freeheeler: Yes in the end I will send it to repair/replacement of course, but I am thinking that the longer I wait, the better are the chances that they eradicated the problem on production chains…

@twekkel : When did you purchase your S9PP ?

@vincent-mayousse almost 3 months back

I’ve noticed this thread and took off my watch to check how it looks, and I’ve noticed this. Many micro bubbles, thats normal or should I worried? Its brand new Suunto watch that i bought 7 september 2023. Should I be worried?

@Tieutieu : Mine starts with 2311… so maybe its a random batch issue. Or (but I hope not for you), it will develop on your wife’s watch as well…

@Tami999 perhaps it is the time between the serial number of production, wrote something about this — if you Check the Pictures perhaps the problems are from 2302 to 2317 or so .
-
@GiPFELKiND : Yes although one #2305 seems (for now…?) NOT affected
