Suunto Observer
By Rit
Ranked #824 - Altimeters
November 28, 2006
This is an excellent watch for the outdoors enthusiast. Loaded with features that are relatively easy to use once you get familiar with the setting procedures (even has a little wallet card in case you forget how to set). The altimeter is so accurate it even works walking up and down a flight of stairs! The compass works flawlessly and the declination correction feature is a plus. The only issues I'd like to mention is the inaudible alarm and the altimeter and barometer do not work simultaneously. I would also suggest getting one with an elastomer band if you plan on getting face protectors for it...easier to put on. Other than that, this watch is everything I expected and more!
