Suunto Core Sports/ Military Watch

sunto core military watchAs an avid hiker and outdoorsman, let me start off with my favorite feature; the Altimeter.  I was simply pleased to find out that it knows altitude, knowing its not the first watch to do so, but I was even more impressed to find that it RECORDS this data too!  This is great especially if you are hiking for fitness and you want to know how high up you have traveled, or you are out exploring the wilderness, using this in conjunction with a topographical map.  It is advertized as a sports watch, but I see many uses extending into the military world.
