Suunto Ocean OHR Accuracy
-
How are the Ocean owners finding OHR accuracy? Resting, day to day, running and cycling?
-
@StuieD resting and cycling it’s perfect for me. I ocationally had peaks while resting with Race but the Ocean has been perfect. I don’t know about running cause I always run with HR belt
-
@StuieD I purchased a 3rd party Velcro band and get good OHR results with this band but not the large silicone band.
-
@Brad_Olwin thanks, did you find the sleep and day readings to be OK with large band? I am not too worried about activities as I wear a strap, but do not want erroneous readings during rest and sleep.

Hi!
I have my new Suunto Ocean but have not been able to dive with it yet.
At the moment, I am using it for other sports (gym, swimming, fitness, etc.).
I have noticed that I have to tighten the strap quite a bit and put it above the wrist bone, if I don’t do this, the readings are not accurate and the result is lower heart rates.
Is this normal?
If I don’t tighten it strongly, being above the wrist bone, it goes down by itself ^_^
-
@valentoni I would say that was pretty typical of all wrist OHR, it will always need to be snug or else light gets in causing inaccuracies, movement can also cause erroneous readings.
-
The best results are achieved “2 fingers” far from hand/wrist line.
