Tough Watches

Have my Suunto Core black nearly 5 years now and highly rate it. If anything was to happen to it I would go straight out and buy another one.

Thanks everyone. Suunto Core Ultimate Black on its way from Germany. £170.00, instead of £250.00 in the UK.

Oops sorry that's the all black at £156

[mcpiston]

A good choice sir.

1 question about the core black.. how dark is the read out as the vids on you tube make me think its hard to read, especially in the sunlight?

thanks dom

The Core with the negative display (dark green/grey on black) reads great in sunshine and at night with the stealthy back light but is harder to read at dawn or dusk , Suunto make a positive display version (black on white) which I think reads better at those times . I got the all black Core last week , love it .

I think both of mine a pretty tough...

The Suunto has survived everything I have thrown at it , so far (swimming pool, beach, etc.)

I calibrated the sea level stting at the beach, but the readings are quite erratic at the pool. It seems to say I am -300m and i'm pretty sure I am not.

I think there may be a software/hardware issue with the watch as the Compass doesn't work correctly anymore. It struggles to find South!

It sounds awful!

Maybe it's because you're already in the South!!
