Suunto is a leading designer and manufacturer of sports instruments for training, diving, mountaineering, hiking, skiing, sailing and golf. Prized for their design, accuracy and dependability, Suunto sports instruments combine the aesthetics and functionality of watches with sport-specific computers that help athletes at all levels analyze and improve performance.

The Suunto Core is the benchmark of Suunto's ABC (Altimeter, Barometer, Compass) wristop computers, furnishing the best features of top-selling Suunto predecessors, and then advancing upon their legacy with innovative environmental monitoring that any outdoor adventurer will find valuable. The Core features an automatic mode that switches between altimeter/barometer depending on your movement level. You’ll love the storm alarm, weather trend indicator and weather graph – but that’s not all. The Core reads ambient and water temperatures.

If you prefer living on the edge, the Suunto Core Extreme Edition Everest is the wristop for you. This limited edition collector's watch featuring Apa Sherpa's signature engraved on the back and only 8,848 units will be made (to reflect Everest's height in meters). Each watch will be numbered. A portion of the proceeds goes directly to The Apa Sherpa Foundation. Get sunrise/sunset times for over 400 locations and use the compass with semi automatic calibration and digital bearing to find your way. Made for the world traveler, the menu is featured in English, German, French and Spanish.
