The Suunto Core Watch utilizes the most advanced Altitude and Barometric wristop technology on the market. With constantly accurate environmental information you get total confidence in the backcountry when wearing the Core watch.
Climbing a peak in a far away land? Need to know how high your climb went? Current altitude? What are your bearings? Is weather on the way? All of these questions are incredibly important to your safety when spending any time in the outdoors, especially when you are far away from civilization and help.
Here are just a few of things the Core can do for you when you wear it. We are impressed, how about you?
Altimeter:Accurate to 30,000 feet, displays current elevation, shows elevation gain/loss, and records your entire session for later analysis.
Barometer:Measures and records air pressure to help you predict changing conditions. Features automatic Alti/Baro mode that senses movement or lack thereof, switching between altimeter and barometer accordingly. Weather Trend Indicator shows 3-6 hour barometric history.
Storm Alarm:Activated by a rapid drop in air pressure over a three-hour period, the Storm Alarm sounds and flashes, letting you know that something unpleasant is fast approaching.
Compass:Digital compass keeps track of direction. Bearing lock with traditional rotating bezel or adjustable digital lock.
Sunrise / Sunset:Just set your continent, region and city, and you'll always know how much daylight remains for safe climbing, skiing and off-trail travel.
Snorkeling:Head into the surf and the Suunto Core shifts from air to water pressure, providing accurate depth readings to 30 feet.
Suunto Core and Suunto Lumi accept acclaimedGear of the Year and Best of Adventure Gearhonors from Men's Journal and National Geographic Adventure Magazine respectively.
Essential equipment for the vertically inclined, the Suunto Core is the professional benchmark for ABC wristops. You look up and see stars. But your Suunto Core sees an approaching squall. And it tells you with the Storm Alarm - one of several intelligent features that can help you make consistently good decisions. 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.

Great watch for backpacking | |
| Rating: |  |
| Bought this watch last month and just took it out on a 5 day hike through the Beartooth wilderness in Montana. This watch does everything a backpacker could need it to do-- sunrise/sunset, compass, altitude-- all accurate as far as I could tell. The watch also looks great, although it is large and might look funny on medium to small wrists. My only complaint would be that this watch is not solar powered. This is something Suunto needs to focus on in the future. I hear that this watch does go through batteries pretty rapidly, and to get caught in the wild without a watch would be a huge problem. I would be willing to pay more to have this feature. | |

| This watch does it all. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the watch band looks cheap and the barometer takes the temp of my body heat vs the surrounding temp. It is noted in the instructions of the temp correction. I believe I might retire my Luminox, and I love my Luminox because of the features the Core has. | |
