Suunto Core Altimeter Watch
Suunto Quality Issues

I've heard so many great things about Suunto watches, however I've not personally experienced them. I have an X6, T1, and a Core. The X6 completely died on me 3 times and I had to send it back to Suunto each time. I bought the Core due to the functionality and sleek looks, however 2 months into owning it I had to send it back to the factory due to a malfunction as well (it is still there, and has been for 2 months). I'm currently wearing the T1 which is a cool little heart rate monitor watch with a much smaller face than the others. It's making due while my Core is away. I have to complain about the quality that I've gotten out of the watches. For a high end, high priced brand I've not seen the quality or customer service from them that I would expect.
