Suunto Vector is a wonderful watch

The Suunto Vector is a wonderful watch, the greatest feature of which is its ability to forecast the weather. Using the barometer mode and knowing what rising and falling pressure means gives you a heads-up on what weather is likely to come.
The large display is very welcome to my aging eyes!
Others commented on how uncomfortable the original wristband was, so I went with the velcro band and I find that, while better than the original, it's a bit too tight for my liking.
