id6230 Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 A good watch for the "active" individual. You can collect data and download it in your computer. Quote Link to comment
capt KK Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 pros n cons about this watch? Quote Link to comment
StarEye Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 Suunto makes the very top-of-the-line sports instrument for almost any outdoor activity (mountaineering, running, boating..etc). They also make dive computers that double as a watch when you're not underwater. My only complaint as far as dive computers is that diving is an all or nothing sport; meaning that you're either very safe with your computer and equipment or you're dead. So I would be more comfortable with a company that ONLY makes dive computers like Apeks rather than one that makes several sports instruments. My friend has the Mosquito and although he sometimes wears it as a watch it really looks kinda big and clunky. Quote Link to comment
Guest lustfortravel Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 I use a Suunto mosquito and I haven't had any problems with it. it is nitrox-capable,compact and there is a built-in log software. my only problem with it is it doesnt have a mac support but i have a pc so it's not a major concern.

Actually, Suunto is one of the more specialized watch makers, as mentioned they do a lot of watches for outdoor activities and are well known for that. They have their own software for their dive watches. I just read an article in an English dive magazine that that Seiko did the last watch/dive computer for Apeks. Seiko also did the Mares Nemo Sport fyi..... Quote Link to comment

In a span of 2.5 years and had logged 40 dives, mine leaked and had to have it service which cost about the same as buying a new one. Quote Link to comment

Mild Seven Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 i don't dive but i do have 2 sunto watches, a regatta (white) and a vector (brown), almost the same actually. plan to get a 3rd one as a xmas gift to myself this year, a green or pink one. Quote Link to comment
Guest I Lucifer Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 I've had a Suunto Mosquito since 2001 and it's still working as well as it did the day i bought it. Over 1000 dives and its never given me a problem. Quote Link to comment
airgunmarrio Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 got 2 vectors, black ang green, both are good to me all function or most are well used, when we go hunting and camping, i dont dive, but during hunts it take the worst beating from rain to mud to vegitation, i love this watch, its lite and rugged, i think, its a very good buy considering its kinada expensive, 16k i think its price now, go get one, be one of the very few, :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment

id6230 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I finally replaced my Suunto(Diving) with a Casio Pathfinder (Diving). I have used it for 12 dives and so far so good. My Suunto is still working after the repair but I just wanted to try the Pathfinder. It has cool features too. Quote Link to comment
Mild Seven Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 am about to get my 3rd suunto watch, a green vector....damn wala na daw yung pink one....only consolacion is that they have cut the price down on some of the models, am just getting this one for around 10k....i know the price before was around 15k.

azayco Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I have a T3 used mostly for running (I have the foot pod too). I have been using it for almost 2 years now. I have to say though that I prefer to use my G-shock for running. Quote Link to comment
mikev Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 i have a vector and been using it for outdoor trips. never had a problem with it. Quote Link to comment
dongchikien Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 me too, never had any problem Quote Link to comment
sleep_heavy Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 share your thoughts... Very expensive for the function that it can deliver.... I would say that you could be more comfortable using a Smart Phone or Maybe a Notebook PC... for me kasi a watch must more importantly, tell the time.... Quote Link to comment
capt KK Posted August 8, 2008 Author Share Posted August 8, 2008 eyeing for the suunto core Quote Link to comment
