      @martintrail Could you tell the circumference of your wrist?

      I have been using Garmin, Polar, Coros and Suunto watches for 20 years for running and cycling. I currently have Suunto Race.

                              @freeheeler I gave her my S9PP when I bought the SV, but she uses it rarely… I think she loves me more than doing sports… πŸ™ˆ

                                @martintrail Thanks, I have exactly the same circumference and I was worried whether the watch would be too big

                                I have been using Garmin, Polar, Coros and Suunto watches for 20 years for running and cycling. I currently have Suunto Race.

                                        @Egika I got yesterday the new Race and the step counter seems much better than the algo on the Vertical. On the Race i have no recorded steps while brushing my teeths. The Vertical has counted around 400-500 steps haha.

                                            Got the Race today πŸ˜€. First impressions:

                                            The box is completly different as usual:

                                            Updating and installing maps worked perfectly and … maps showed up instantaneously after getting a valid GPS fix.
