      @gerstlauer hmm i wonder if it’s a common thing. My bottom button is fully functional too, it just doesn’t feel as comfortable to press and I always have a slight fear it will fail soon.

        @Bastienhere I had the same problem. I put the watch under running water and kept pushing the button for a while. Dried it with towel, shaking and blowing - problem solved.

          @sracer i might give this a try if I feel brave 😂

          I have this preassumption that pressing the button under water entails a higher risk of water damage due to moving parts

            @Bastienhere Race S is waterproof up to 50m. There is absolutely no restrictions to use the buttons under water.

              @sracer i know i know, it’s just not something I’m used to, just like dipping a waterproof phone in water 😅

                Top is clicky, back button not at all.

                  @lessthanmore is yours made in finland or china? I wonder if there’s a difference

                      @VoiGAS lucky 😞 it looks like some people are experiencing similar back button mushiness like me, kind of a shame in terms if quality control.

                        I’ll try the multiple click stuff under water on the weekend 😉

                          @Bastienhere I bought the Titanium Version and it’s the same now after a few weeks.
                          Upper button is clickly, lower button not so much anymore.

                            @lessthanmore interesting, So even the titanium version has the same ‘issue’! Definitely not ideal… I hope Suunto knows about this one.
