Suunto Core Altimeter Watch

Item #SUN0090 | 214 in Stock
1 Star Rating

Must be made in China

By Ranked #594 - Altimeters February 29, 2008

I bought the light green version of the Core, and it worked for about a month before the total ascent measurement went bonkers. I returned it, got another, and in two days the log stopped working entirely. Bad run of luck, or crappy quality? All you have to do is hold the thing in your hand to realize how poorly made it is. Very cheap construction. Seems to me that Suunto should be building them a little better after all these years.
