Suunto Core Wrist-Top Computer Watch with Altimeter, Barometer, Compass, and Depth Measurement (Black/Yellow)

Suunto Core Wrist-Top Computer Watch with Altimeter, Barometer, Compass, and Depth Measurement (Black/Yellow) Falls a bit short – poor display and flimsy – Bryan L. Singer – Deep South, United States
I had a Suunto X-lander before this watch. I remember it being flawless, easy to read, and solid construction. This watch looked to be a good replacement, but I was immediately disappointed. The display is very difficult to read, I have to stare intently to see the North indicator on the compass and read the display in general. The backlight doesn’t help as it is also very weak.

Then, there’s the construction. It has a polished case and all I can think is SCRATCH! The watchband felt like it would rip.

As far as functions go, seems well featured, but the display really makes this watch unappealing to me.
Suunto: SS013315010 Building on the success of the venerable Suunto Vector, the Suunto Core keeps you informed with an accurate altimeter, barometer, digital thermometer, Weather Trend Indicator and digital compass. The pressure gauge operates in four distinct modes, including an automatic setting that senses your movement or lack thereof, switching between altimeter and barometer accordingly. The compass features a rotating bezel for traditional use, or a one-touch function that allows you to sight, lock and follow a bearing. Daily functions include dual time, date, alarm, sports chronograph and predicted times for sunrise and sunset.

Visually satisfying – A. Gloriani – Las Vegas NV
The photos are superb, no doubt about it. To me the pictures that sometimes went with the instructions were not enough. I felt that if there were step by step sketches or pictures to the instructions, it would have gotten an excellent rating from me. Overall, I still would give the book 5 stars.
