Unboxing 90th Anniversary Edition

[zhangschmidt]

@OutdoorMan My birthday’s tomorrow, it’s my (Chinese zodiac) birth year again, and I want to get back into (among other things) Suunto videos. Oh, and I’ll try a 100-miler again this year.

But also, I already have a Vertical 2…

[Brad_Olwin]

@zhangschmidt Excellent! Good luck on the 100!

It’s a nice package, but I like the smooth look of the ,normal‘ SV2 Titanium… it’s also good for wearing in daily living. The watch face looks interesting!

[Tieutieu]

@SuperFlo75 I’m also torn between the attraction to this limited edition and package, and the facts that I don’t need it and also conviced I would not use it daily (not much of my straps collection would fit…).
Also I would have expected it to be made in Finland.
Well, I think I’ll resist to temptation this time, and keep going with my SV1 and my SRs…for now.
But very nice release !

@Tieutieu I’ve already written about this somewhere else. The fact that it’s not made in Finland makes me really sad about this edition. Anyway, it’s a very nice edition, but… I still wear V1 more than V2. I can’t help it.

That new watch face looks really good… I hope it will be added to “standard” version also at some point…

From comments under Vertical 2 Anniversary Edition I see more comments about watchface than special watch itself. People going to be angry if not get this watchface on regular Vertical 2 (and other):D

[MikkoKartano]

@Tami999 Yep… Watch itself looks also really nice, I would change happily my black one to that - but I’m not gonna buy second Vertical I do hope they create at least something similar to that watch face.

[zhangschmidt]

I’ve always wanted to do a video about Suunto, its background/history with compasses, and the hybrid approach to route planning/navigation that would be really recommendable above and beyond turn-by-turn from a watch…

Meaning: I’ll probably end up convincing myself to get this package to return to that line of my videos. (All the while, since I had children - by now, two - I haven’t really been able to get back into doing videos or other online sharing…)

[SirMcKey]

@zhangschmidt Hello Gerald, congratulations beeing father of two! Allways watched your videos. Especially the chineese

[Sportsfreund]

@zhangschmidt I like his English with the southern German dialect.

[zhangschmidt]

@SirMcKey @sportsfreund @brad_olwin Thank you! I’m slowly getting back into online things…

[OutdoorMan]

Hmmm…

[Horizontal_2]

@OutdoorMan not on my vertical 2 titanium

Maybe it needs time to roll out. Or they meant the anniversary edition

[Tieutieu]

I’m proud of me….went to a shop this morning and they had one limited 90th anniversary sv2 bundle. Even if I’m a huge fan, I have resisted and finally decided that orange color was a no go for everyday use, so my SV1 and SRs will stay at my wrist.
Very nice package though !

[SuperFlo75]

@Tieutieu This is also my opionion, stay strong

[Stavrogin]

@zhangschmidt I have seen about 6 or 7 influencers with them so far.

[Freezer]

@Tieutieu I have the 90th and in my opinion it is a “difficult” watch to dress but also a beautiful reminder of the Vector series and very special piece if you manage to “wear it right”. I really like it.

That said neither the 90th or the regular Vertical 2 have the good looks of the Vertical 1. That watch was (is) an absolute winner and if Suunto were to offer Verical 2 “undercarriage” with a MIP screen (& bezel) from Vertical 1 I would absolutely go for it.

PS - 90th has a newer firmware that seems to address some of the bugs and wishes reported in the forum! 🥳

[sky-runner]

@Freezer When the 90th anniversary edition is supposed to ship? Some people seem to already have it.

[Freezer]

@sky-runner dunno about shipping. I got it at a local Suunto dealer. Available today.
