@@BackpackingUK same here m8 always keep them bit looser, had same Casio G shock 15 plus years wear it all time but the core I’ve worn handful time and fell off in restaurant and it had snapped all the way across the hole so hope it’s not a problem with them all🤞
Hey Andy great vid I’m trying to decide between the 9 peak pro and the baro, the baro being a larger watch. Do you know what size your wrist is? That watch suited you wrist well, thanks
Watch out with Suunto. They don’t honour their warranties. I received a broken product direct from them and they demand I accept their terms & conditions to enable a return but the conditions allow them to charge me! Don’t buy Suunto.
@@BackpackingUK agreed - in my case bought directly from them and signed for - reported in writing the fault within two hours of receiving the product.
@@chrishamilton2527that shouldn't be a warranty return at all. You can return a faulty product under consumer protection rights. In fact since you bought online you can return regardless of reason.
I didn’t have that experience at all. Out of warranty my watch suddenly stopped working just stuck on the upload screen. Suunto gave me a huge credit towards the 9 pro.
@@karybakk of course they did - to get you to spend more money on an overpriced item. They are not an honourable company. They supply a faulty product and then demanded that j accept new terms and conditions to return their defective product which includes me accepting to pay them to make a return. That is not reasonable service or proper customer service. I will continue to expose them at every opportunity. Why are you defending their abysmal service?
Sorry but why would I want this done 30 miles today with a map and compass for Lazey idiots boots are holding up well since you never replied tonhiwbyou treat yours 😅
No Pal hahaha but phone dies tracking done another 26 miles today Mish mash of West Pennine way GM Ringway and some roads 💩 feet in bits did 20 miles yesterday anyway the Aku have now done 300 miles since 1st of march 🤪 liking them actually also say's inside the boot hand crafted in Serbia by specialist boot makers
These watches are gadgets that we don’t need, certainly at the prices that they charge! If you don’t know how far you have gone or what altitude you are at, you should not be out on the hills! People who are adventurous and get out into the hills and mountains need to learn basics skills and not rely on fiddly battery driven toys like these ‘smart’ watches, they need to get ‘smart’ themselves. Sorry.
@@BackpackingUK My phone does all that. It is just profiteering by the manufacturers to create these gadgets, (like Apple watches etc). I think that your channel is excellent, but sometimes you can promote stuff that is way over the top when it comes to cost and actual usefulness.

Awesome video Andy! I really enjoyed the 9 Peak Pro, bulletproof, comfortable and great battery life. I hope Suunto bring maps to their next version 🔥
Thanks for sharing 👍
Great review! Thank you! Got mine from Amazon a couple of weeks ago for £270
Thank you for the review, I am a fellow Suunto athlete and prefer these watches over Garmin and Coros. Love your perspective and functional review.
Nice video. Small size and light weight. Good looking for outdoor adventures and daily wear watch and also sleep tracking.
Is the watch strava and komoot compatible?
I used it with Strava
Can you pull latitude and longitude with this also a 10 digit grid ? I didn’t watch the video just a quick question
Hope the straps have improved on the core, I wore mine 5 times and the strap snapped in half and I didn’t av it tight at all
The straps been fine on mine but I don't wear it really tight, especially when exercising because my wrists swell.

Garmin tactic 7 pro...way to go
I thought this watch is 49mm. Am I wrong? Great video 🙌🏻 Thank you.
Mine's not that big.
@@BackpackingUK do you know what size it is? I really thought these were a fairly large faced watch. As in 49mm.
This is 43mm 👍
@@BackpackingUK thank you very much for clarifying. Very much appreciated 🙌🏻

The Peak Pro is about the same size as my Garmin Fenix 6s (s denoting small). If you’ve got larger wrists go big 👍

MSR and other Brands are similar too. It's mainly because it could be out of warranty or a fault caused by damage from the user.

It’s not for me too much fafing about
It's genuinely easy to use!

Does your map record your activity and all the data too? I think you're missing the point, it's not just about following a route.
