Has anyone had problems with Suunto not honoring warranties for those who purchased the Suunto core from amazon.com?

I purchased my Suunto Core Watch On Amazon actually it was my second purchase of a Suunto Core Watch on Amazon.My son graduated from the police academy and I gave him a Suunto Core watch as a graduation present. Shortly after wards, The watch over time aapx 4 Months and was depleting the battery slowly and required frequent replacements. Just recently I filed a service request with Suunto Serial Number R20210602465923-1 Ticket # 1732600769 Suunto Claimed , I had fried the Motherboard of the watch during a simple battery replacement. That is highly unlikely, I am a Controls Technician who works with Robotics. Particularly ABB Robots the maintenance and programming of Robots and PLC'S ( Pro Logic Controllers) that run these robotics and help to Diagnose them in real time. I am also a former Avionics tech with Lockheed Martin. Working on Military Aircraft and Missile systems. I am a former Avionics tech with the United States Marine Corps Airwing ( VMFA 332) A licensed HVAC tech and hold a Massachusetts Hoisting engineers license. I am very capable of replacing a CR2032 battery in a watch. If in fact as stated. The watch would never had worked over a four month period before the battery was completed depleted. . A more likely scenario, is one of the components on the motherboard. Was faulty and during Suunto's initial assembly or one of their techs created an ESD ( electro static discharge ) during assembly. The faulty component worked and passed their bench testing / QC test. However , The faulty component was working as expected however, it was bleeding current and that was never caught. I purchased this watch from Amazon and the defective component over time became apparent. Suunto claimed they would give me a $34 credit towards the purchase of a new watch and refused to stand behind its product. Keep in mind I have purchased a total of 3 Suunto Core Watches and have installed CR2032 Batteries in all 3 watches. None as frequent as in the case of this particular watch.

Does this track distance

As far as I know, no, A B C, altimeter, barometric, compass. I was debating on this watch vs. a GPS watch, but I wouldn't use the GPS watch as much. I hope this helps

My watch is in another language how do i get it to english? i believe it's in german

Push the 2 left buttons and upper and lower right buttons at the same time, puts the watch in sleep mode then push right center button and wait for it to turn on, it’ll say language, scroll with right upper and lower buttons

Does it have an alert when seperated from phone?

If you read the description or bothered to look at the web page you would see this is not connected to a device .. the version that does is well over $500-$1000 🙄 got to suunto’d web page or read the item description 🙄🙄🙄🙄
