User Review: Suunto Core

Reviewed January 25, 2008 by Jostian

Rating:
Price Paid: $250

Bought the Core (black & yellow) a few weeks ago. Was really disappointed, functionality is great and setup is a cinch but the watch is flimsy and feels cheap, and 10 minutes after I put it on my arm it fell off (one of the screws that hold the clasp on was missing...great first impression!!).

Thanks, but NO thanks!! An outdoor adventure watch that feels like a piece of lightweight plastic doesn't inspire any confidence, being lightweight is one thing but the Core (black & yellow) feels insignificant.

It was my first (had high hopes) Suunto and unless they bring out something a lot more substantial it'll be my last...gave it back to the dealer and got a full refund. Think I'll stick to Polar!
