Will the Suunto athletic 7 loop strap improve HR accuracy?
-
I have a S9PP and really like the watch but the OHR accuracy is quite poor for most of the activities I do. Accordingly, I usually use an armband HR monitor. Does anyone think that getting the loop strap will help with the watch wrist heart rate accuracy?
Note: during activity I wear the watch 2 finger widths above my wrist and have tried different amounts of tightness and still the accuracy is poor unless I’m on a stationary bike or similar.

it could help a bit, but for reliable HR readings you’ll need chest strap
