David Isasi bought the limited edition Suunto Vertical 2 90th anniversary watch for €799, questioning if the premium is worth it.

David Isasi opens the episode by announcing his purchase of the Suunto Vertical 2 90th anniversary edition, a limited release of 1,936 units costing €799. He explains the watch comes in three finishes with price differences despite identical hardware. Isasi describes using a script to monitor Suunto's website for availability, which led to his IP being temporarily banned. The packaging includes the watch, a mirror compass, and fridge magnets, with the compass noted as a decorative throwback to Suunto's origins. He expresses disappointment that the watch isn't individually numbered, questioning the authenticity of its limited edition claim. The watch features a titanium case with an international orange ring, two straps (rubber and elastic nylon), and a 1.5-inch screen with 3,000 nits brightness. Isasi critiques the watch's overly sporty design and color scheme, making it unsuitable for formal occasions. He highlights the excellent battery life, consuming only 5% per day with active display and GPS. For running, he compares the Suunto unfavorably to the Workout Doors app, which offers highly customizable screens and automatic segment-based data display. He notes Suunto's limitation of only two apps during workouts and its cumbersome music management requiring MP3 files. Isasi mentions WhatsApp's new Garmin app and Suunto's recent opening of its app ecosystem. He praises the Suunto mobile app for providing clear metrics like effort and recovery time but notes it lacks a web platform. The maps on the Suunto are fluid, similar to the Apple Watch, but lack city navigation features. He criticizes the absence of NFC payments and the odd tactile feedback of the crown. Isasi concludes that the Suunto Vertical 2 is ideal for extreme adventurers but recommends the Apple Watch Ultra with Workout Doors for most listeners due to its smart features and integration.
