Our Review of the Suunto Face Protector
Suunto Watch Protective Shields attach around the strap / band.
Protects watch face from scratches and nicks
Doubles as a magnifying glass when off of your watch, handy for starting that emergency fire
Fits all Suunto Wristop Computer models except the 9 series watches (M9 and G9)
2 face shields included per package
NOTE: The Suunto Face Protector does not work with the Suunto X9i or X9M/i.
(Observer SS/SS and TI/TI ship with a hinged band that will make it more difficult to install. Replacing the metal band with the elastomer band will ease use.)

Face protector
Reviewer: Ron , Lake Charles, LA

It's too bulky and difficult to read through. If you want protection though it does do that, and can be removed after the threatening event

Face Protector
Reviewer: Ben B , Ft Wainwright, AK
Date: December 13, 2007
I only had it on the watch for a day or two. My vector watch is already pretty big, with the face protector attatched it is huge. While it makes the watch larger it also magnifies the display and it will protect the face. So if you are more concerned with appearances than function don't buy it. If you want to protect your watch face then get it. Two protectors come in one order. Next time I go to the field it will go back on. As for starting an emergency fire with it....... Good luck.

SUUNTO WATCH FACE PROTECTOR
Reviewer: Mike , California

The watch face protector is a must for suunto watches. I use one on my Stinger and my Vector. The magnifying lense assists with underwater reading. The plastic watch face has a tendancy to scratch in harsh environments.

Although it looks a little weird, it certainly does the job it is designed to do.

Too clunky
Reviewer: Anonymous , Park City, UT
Date: October 14, 2007
The protector is a great idea (considering how easily the face gets scratched) but was poorly executed. It is much too thick and distorts the view of the numbers. In fact, it's harder to see through the protector than through scratches! Its bulky and looks terrible.
Why not just make the Suunto face more scratch resistant? Getting a scratch the first 24 hours of ownership isn't a sign of quality. (Though, I love everything else about the watch, so.....)

Love the functionality, watch construction? Ich do
Reviewer: Anonymous , Chester, VT
Date: August 05, 2007
I bought the face protector hoping that it would add some longevity to my new T3 watch, which was my second, after the first one broke in less than 3 weeks! Ouch! Well...I am now getting ready to send in my second T3, (2 1/2 months total). The functionality that the T3 offers is amazing -- just please rebuild the watch in a more durable design. I've had a Vector for over 8 years now, that is one tough watch! And, to Suunto's credit they fixed it right up after I destroyed it in a nice little road bike crash about 3 years ago. Suunto, you have amazing functionality, although I am beginning to question your new designs, and their durability?!

Not Up To Par
Reviewer: Nathan Lynch , Oceanside, CA
Date: July 17, 2007
I ordered the face protectors because I am hard on watches since I joined the Marine Corps 8 years ago, I own two Suunto watches, both have taken a beating, one has even survived after my left hand grabbed a high voltage line for almost three minutes in Iraq. The watches are great, but the face protectors leave a lot to desire.
