 Good value for a quality watch. April 14, 2010
Tay (Singapore)
My first Suunto Watch that I had was at least 18 years old, only until recently it started to drain my battery very fast. So I decided to purchase the same watch since the price was good.
Tough & Great Quality November 12, 2009

I've had my Vector for a couple years now. Didn't really wear it till I joined the Army over a year ago, though. I'm in the Infantry and it's been through a lot of tough conditions and is still going strong. Still the original band, showing no signs of distress. I replace the battery about every year and a half when the warning comes up.
I LOVE the barometric pressure trend window on the face, let's me know at a glance if we're getting good weather or bad while out on a mission. You will wonder how you ever got a long without it.
The compass is surprisingly accurate if calibrated regularly and cross-checked against known points. You can quick-access the compass by just pushing one button--great for getting a quick bearing while yr on the move, just make sure it's away from ferrous metals, of course. Much faster than trying to pull out my real compass. The bubble-level built into the face is great for that extra-level of accuracy that I've come to expect from Suunto.
The altimeter isn't as dependable in my opinion. But, Suunto makes it extremely easy to correct it to known elevation in about 3 seconds. I typically reset it every morning when I know my elevation, but it deviates too much in my opinion throughout the day.
It's also got the thermometer. You can set it for metric or english units, but it's kind of a pain to do it. (Suunto, it would be nice to make a one-touch button to switch back and forth.) Oh, and obviously it does military time, too.
Yes, it's a big watch, but the crystal is actually plastic, so it is extremely light and comfortable to wear. Despite being plastic and being through all the sand/dirt/rocks, etc., my watch face has very little scratching at all.
There are more features I love about this watch, but I hit the main ones here. I didn't like this watch till I actually started wearing it in the Army.
 The First "Triple Sensor" watch November 9, 2009

This is the Watch that put Suunto on the map in 1999. It's been to the top of Mt. Everest.
Pros:
1. Mountaineers, hikers, climbers will enjoy the Triple Sensor, Altitude, Temperature, Compass features.
2. Very lightweight and surprisingly comfortable.
3. Trendy large diameter size.
4. Super easy to read display.
5. Worn by the members of Television's Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis.
Cons:
1. EL backlight requires holding upper right button for 2 seconds to activate.
2. Kind of thick and bulky at 15mm
3. Water resistance sketchy. Mariners, divers, sailors need not apply.
4. Kind of old news. Casio now sells similar but possibly more fashionable Pathfinder and ProTrek models.
