      After yesterday’s firmware update to version 2.40.38, I restored my favorite watch face, “Simplicity Analog.” Unfortunately, the second hand remains white regardless of the accent color I choose. I tested my favorite red, as well as yellow, purple, etc. The result is always the same – a white second hand. This looks like a system bug. Please check and fix it.

        @Zbzac it is already said to be a bug and will be fixed in the main firmware update thread…

          If Suunto starts introducing bugs wherre things previously worked well - they will become as Garmin…

          Introducing bug in such a benign place like watch second hand is making me super nervous of losing stability in trivial UX things…

          Be it a bug where it should not exist or part of the planned obsolescence - in either way I am disappointed…

          I just switched from Garmin and would not like to regret that decision… At least with Garmin I could roll back to any firmware I want.

            @leonidas I feel you as I’m currently have both Garmin and Suunto…

            But so is the way with software: it never is bug free. There are ways to avoid bugs or the reappearance of them, like test driven development. But unless you have a simple app, you cannot test all combinations of installations and settings or use cases someone might have.

            And TBF the accent color of a hand is not a major bug…
