      The upper button of my Spartan Ultra is hard to push when not pushed since one day or two (= no activity since this time 🙂 ).
      I have read but can’t find it anymore what kind of lub may be used to solve this without sending it to Suunto.
      Any advise, please ?

        @Mff73 Sometimes I have the same issue with my S9Baro. What helps in my case is to clean watch with water and mild soap using very soft brush. Focus on buttons but do not push them while immersed in water. Hope it helps.

            @Mff73 To lube rubber sealings (bicycle suspension, car door sealings) I use pure silicone oil. Not sure in case of such delicate thing like watch buttons…

              Try to clean it first.
              I wouldn’t lube it. I guess friction is avoided using some teflon gasket or something like that. Lube residual can be counterproductive.

                @sartoric I also think so.
                Washing always helps in my case 🙂
