Disappointing launch

[General_Witt]

The title says it all.
What kind of launch is this?
Steel version out of stock, titanium version to be sold at a later time.
I know I know, we are lucky enough to have this kind of “problems” in our life, but still…

@General_Witt Steel version order is possible (earlier this morning it was “out of order”, but right now you can place order - on french suunto’s website at least). Titanium version not available yet indeed.
Plus : I guess there is a large amount of stock available…but if there is too much consumers to buy it, all we can say is that this watch rocks in people’s minds !!
Vertical launch was quite a success too, with very quick “out of stock” (but I admit that exact sales launch hour was clearly annouced )

[General_Witt]

@Tieutieu I have an Amazon gift card so I’m kinda “forced” to use it to buy the watch. Suunto didn’t refresh their shop page there yet.
Kinda unusual for a company on the launch day of a new premium product.

@General_Witt available on Amazon - no problem to order:
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0CC2MK4LV/

[General_Witt]

@Egika Maybe you see another version of the site from within Germany.
That’s what I see from Italy for the titanium version that I want to buy.

[Egika]

@General_Witt maybe yes.
In German Amazon I can buy it now.

Italian Amazon has it here: https://www.amazon.it/gp/aw/d/B0CC2JTMMM

[General_Witt]

@Egika I’ve seen it, but warranty differs if you buy from an outside EU country, like buying from Amazon UK.
I’ll wait for the EU stock to replenish.

I think stock is easier when the watch is made in Finland, but it should improve for Race

@isazi ordered @ 4AM in the US directly from suunto no issues

@craigeggleton ma la versione titanio?

[General_Witt]

The funny thing is that I sold my S9Baro Titanium recently hoping to get the new watch on launch day. I feel naked now, first time “wrist free” in years.

@lexterm77 actually not in the german store…

[General_Witt]

UPDATE: Titanium version has completely vanished from Amazon Italy.

[SuperFlo75]

@General_Witt perhaps the titanium racers are on their way from china… in front of the Suez Canal?

[craigeggleton]

@mamertino1984 I ordered the titanium.

[Marius Jacobsen Eggerud]

@craigeggleton Where? I am still waiting for the titanium to be available on Suuntos website. Actually a little disappointed they dont deliver what they promised.
