From the highest mountains to the deepest oceans, Suunto equips and inspires outdoor adventurers to conquer new territory.
Suunto was founded in 1936 by Tuomas Vohlonen, himself an orienteer and engineer, when he developed liquid-filled compasses. Thanks to the liquid filling it was possible to read the values much better and more precisely - the term accuracy took on a completely new meaning. In 1965 Suunto developed the first diving compass and in 1998 Suunto Vector celebrated its revolutionary debut. As the first wrist-worn outdoor computer, the Vector was equipped with Suunto's typical functions: Altimeter, barometer, compass and thermometer. Today the Suunto range includes sports watches, smart watches, premium watches, diving products, compasses and matching accessories. Adventurers from all over the world have been placing their trust in the successful company for years
Which Suunto Watch Is the Right Choice for You?
All Suunto watches are suitable for people with an active lifestyle. Whether you prefer to wear a Smartwatch like the Suunto 3,5, 7 and 9 or a multi-sports watch optimized for performance-oriented athletes like the Ambit3 depends on your individual needs.
To find out what your needs are, you can ask yourself the following questions.
What Do You Value Most in a Sports Watch?
Suunto sports watches convince with their design, functionality, performance and feel, but there are still sizable differences. Many models, such as the Suunto 3 and 7 and the Traverse, feature a stainless steel bezel (glass bezel). In addition, watches are available with bezels made of aluminium, steel and even titanium.
The choice of materials for the watch glass is similarly varied, including mineral crystal, sturdy gorilla glass and particularly fine and resilient sapphire crystal.
Nowadays, multisport watches and smart watches offer functions, measurements and analyses for which only a few years ago complex measurement technology was required. The Suunto 5, for example, impresses with route navigation, GPS altitude measurement, calorie counting, sleep analysis, storm warning and much more.
Despite this immense range of features, Sunnto sports watches achieve a battery life of up to 120 hours during continuous training recording.
Which Sports and Activities Do You Practice and Which Would You like to Try?
Whether you are an outdoor enthusiast, active cyclist, fitness junkie, recreational runner or water sports fan, Suunto has an optimized model for any type of activity that features up to 80 sport modes. The Suunto 9, Ambit3 Peak and Suunto 7 are the most versatile models.
Is High Connectivity, for Example with a Laptop or Smartphone, Important to You?
Letting friends share in personal successes and goals is also important to many people. State-of-the-art Suunto multi-sport watches can be connected quickly and easily to your smartphone thanks to Bluetooth Smart. With the Suunto App you can easily see trends in your daily activities, rhythm and quality of sleep. While you are exercising, your cell phone can stay in your pocket because push notifications can be displayed directly on your smart Suunto watch.
Do you have a favorite social sports tracking network such as Strava or TrainingPeaks? The Add-In functionality also allows you to connect directly to many models.
The Suunto 3, 5, 7 and 9 models offer a particularly high level of networking and connectivity, so we would like to introduce the Suunto 3 Fitness and Suunto 9 Baro in more detail down below.
Suunto 9 Baro - rock solid - just like you!
Smart, durable and enduring - these are exactly the attributes that distinguish the Suunto 9.
Thanks to the intelligent battery life management system, the Multisport GPS watch offers 120 hours of uninterrupted training recording and is therefore the perfect companion for an outdoor adventure lasting several days. The Suunto 9 also stands out for its robustness, which has been tested in Finland under the toughest conditions. In addition, a compass and the combination of GPS and barometric altimetry together with breadcrumb navigation ensure that you never lose your way. With more than 80 sports and disciplines to choose from, you're ready for any sport and can take your performance to a new level with heart rate monitors and other training tools.
