If you need a versatile watch for all occasions whether you are dressed up or dressed down, this one is for you. As you can see from the above characteristics this watch is tough and durable enough to withstand and battle all outdoor conditions, activities and elements. Accuracy of the compass, altimeter, barometer and thermometer are near perfect of course with the exception of effects of air temperature on altitude measurement which may throw things off from time to time. The LCD display serves up maximum clarity for text and numbers. Battery life is expected to last for 1 year and can be replaced with a 3-volt lithium battery. When you decide to plan your next hike the Observer can be used as a weather station (barometer function) or in the altimeter function it will allow for adjustable units of measure in either feet or meters. All can be adjusted easily from the MODE setting.
Never worry about precision if you are a techie because the instruction manual is armed and ready with tables that actually estimate beginning temperature, beginning altitude for a planned hike. The duration readout can be set to calculate your time trekking through the mountains. It will basically let you know your hours and minutes spent on any trip or tour. Say for instance you are walking from 8am – 12noon and the built in log book is active over the course of your walk, the final read out would display a duration of 4 hours. A vivid eye-catching backlight is available along with a daily alarm and declination adjustment. Don’t follow the trends set the standard and stand out in any crowd and be original with a Suunto watch. Check additional reviews here for the Suunto SS010660320 Observer Wristop Computer.
