I've had a T6 for three years now and love it! Was thinking about upgrading to the T6C, but according to your spec on the right side of the page, there's no barometer?? How does the altimeter work if there's no barometer? If this spec is incorrect, how much of the rest is wrong?

The Suunto t6c uses barometric pressure to measure altitude, but it doesn't offer barometric readings as one of the display options. I guess that's because they consider this a training watch, and added other training specific display options. The rest of the specs appear correctly here.
