The Suunto Core Light Green Watch has an ultra-light alloy bezel with a unique lime green anodized trim which, combined with the light dial, gives this superb watch a fresh outdoor look and a very appropriate image for such an effective multi-function outdoors sports wrist-top computer.

With its large 50-mm face, the Core Light Green Watch gives you a great view of your key data and the Core does have a great array of data such as the Altimeter, Barometer and Compass (ABC) functions to display.

Developed from the tried and trusted Suunto Vector beloved by service personnel over the years, the Suunto Core has stunning levels of accuracy and a number of impressive functions including a depth meter, sunrise/sunset times, a range of alarms and easy-to-view barometer and altimeter records.

The Suunto Core senses approaching storms and alerts you with the Storm Alarm, one of several intelligent features that can help you make the important right decisions when it matters most.

The Suunto Core keeps you informed with an accurate altimeter, barometer, digital thermometer, weather-trend indicator and digital compass.

The Core pressure gauge operates in four distinct modes, including an automatic setting that senses your movement or lack of it, switching between altimeter and barometer accordingly. The compass features a rotating bezel for traditional use and also a one-touch option that allows you to sight, lock on to and follow a bearing.

Daily functions include dual time, date, alarm, sports chronograph and predicted times for sunrise and sunset.

Dimensions (W x D): 50 x 14 mm; Weight 63 grams.

Features

Altimeter

Accurate to 30,000 feet, the Suunto Core altimeter is a valuable tool for mountaineering, back-country skiing, wilderness travel etc. It displays your current elevation, shows how far you’ve climbed or descended and records your entire session for later analysis.

If you’re on or near an obvious feature (e.g. ridge, trail or creek), you can use your current elevation to find your position on a topographic map. If you plan on climbing a slope to a certain elevation and then traversing, an altimeter is an ideal tool to help you stay on course.

You can also use elevation to gauge your progress. The Core displays elevation gained and lost between a given point (a trailhead or belay station) and your current position.

Simplifying altimeter use, the Core includes a unique start-from-zero function that eliminates the need for entering a reference altitude. With a single push of a button, the altimeter will begin tracking your ascent and descent.

Barometer

The Suunto Core barometer measures and records air pressure to help you predict changing conditions, from sunny skies to hair-bending electrical storms.

When you’re hiking in a canyon or dense forest without views of the horizon, a barometer can 'see' into the distance, keeping you posted of changes in air pressure that can lead to bad weather. Even at home, the Suunto Core barometer looks beyond office walls, skyscrapers and nearby hills to help you plan ahead for upcoming ventures.

Auto Altimeter/Barometer

An altimeter measures air pressure to determine altitude while a barometer measures air pressure to determine barometric pressure. If you leave your watch in altimeter mode while hanging out at camp, an incoming low-pressure front will read as a gain in altitude. So it’s important to choose the right mode for your activity: altimeter for climbing and barometer for time at camp. The Core makes it easy to manually choose the proper mode for your activity.

The Core also features an automatic altimeter/barometer mode that senses movement or lack of it, switching between altimeter and barometer accordingly. When you’re climbing, it records changes in elevation and when you stop to rest, it records changes in barometric pressure. A drop in air pressure while you’re sleeping under the stars will be recorded for what it really is - a change in barometric pressure, not altitude.

Weather-Trend Indicator

The Weather-Trend Indicator shows the barometric history for the last 3 and 6 hours, helping you predict the weather with amazing accuracy. What’s more, it’s not a regional forecast posted earlier in the day but the current information about the weather directly overhead, whether you’re hiking, biking or enjoying a cup of tea with the morning paper.

Storm Alarm

The Storm Alarm is activated by a rapid drop in air pressure over a 3-hour period when it sounds and flashes, letting you know that unpleasant weather is fast approaching.

Compass

The digital compass on the Core is a great tool for keeping track of direction while skiing, hiking or exploring a new city. You can set and follow a bearing with a traditional rotating bezel or simply point the top of the watch towards your intended destination and lock it in.

Sunrise/Sunset

Maximise your daylight hours and never miss another alpine photo opportunity with daily sunrise and sunset times displayed on the Core. Just set your continent, region and city and you’ll always know how much daylight remains for safe climbing, skiing and off-trail travel.

Depth Meter

Head into the surf and the Core provides water resistance to 30 meters (100 ft) and shifts from air to water pressure, giving accurate depth readings to 10 metres (30 ft) with underwater-useable buttons.

The Core displays data in English, French, German or Spanish.
