The Suunto Core All
Black sports watch.
Award-winning, stylish,
lightweight, tough and
simple to use; sounds
pretty good doesnt it.
Well thats because it is.
It is the outdoor
enthusiasts watch of
choice if you are looking
for simplicity and
essential easy to use
features. These
features are; Altimeter
Barometer Compass
Temperature Storm Alarm
Sunrise and sunset Depth
meter for snorkeling One
thing to remember about
the Suunto Core is that
it is an ABC* wrist-top
computer, not GPS watch
and it doesnt record
navigational data (which
saves a shed load of
battery power). It is an
instrument that gives a
visual reference of your
current elevation,
orientation and
metrological environment
using an air pressure
based altimeter. What is
handy is that in the
logbook section it will
show you your total
ascent and decent in
meters or feet.
*(altimeter/barometer/compass)
So this little air
pressure based altimeter
I mentioned earlier, to
simplify this for you and
to help you understand
what it does... Inside
the watch is a capsule
that contains a blob
of magnetised liquid
metal. As you ascend the
external air
pressure drops causing
the liquid metal blob to
expand, and when
external
pressure increases as
you descend it contracts
(either by magic or
because of simple
physics, you decide. I
like to think its magic).
Anyway the Suunto Core
measures this expansion
and contraction, and the
little computer inside
translates this into
units we can all
understand. It also does
the same kind of thing to
get the temperature
reading. As the blob
warms up it expands and
as it cools, it
contracts, and as I said
before; the liquid metal
blob
is maganetised which
provides the watch with
the information it needs
to tell you which way is
north. All very
scientific stuff that you
dont really need to know
but I thought it was
pretty cool. For some
information about how the
watch looks and what the
rest of it is made out
of; its got a
black aluminium rotating
bezel,
black elastomer strap
with black anodized
buckle and a negative
black display. In short,
its black. Oh with bright
green hour markers and
glow in the dark North
indicator. The Suunto
Core features user
friendly Battery changing
capabilities and runs off
a standard CR2032 watch
battery; in time mode
this gives you a
ridiculous 12 month
battery life. It also has
a electro-luminescent
backlight, low battery
indicator and is water
resistant to 30m (water
resistant does not mean
water proof!) when
snorkeling the
instructions state that
its good for up to 10m in
depth. This watch is
great to use anywhere and
everywhere.
