Getting There: The Digital Compass Watch

If you're a hiker, no one needs to tell you what an essential piece of gear a reliable compass is. You'll have no worries with a Suunto digital compass watch or a Suunto watch. It is typically very easy to calibrate and to set the declination for your own location on these watches, and it's just as easy to read the compass bearings. Mountain bikers, runners, skiers - and just about anyone else - sometimes could use a little help staying on track. Watches like the Suunto Xlander Military, Vector, Core, Lumi, and others can make the difference between going where you want to and going... somewhere else. And from experience, that's a very good thing.

In terms of combining the best features of all Suuntos, this watch does it. With the ABC (altimeter, barometer, compass) functions of the award-winning Vector, the Suunto Xlander Military is just as reliable and accurate in reporting environmental conditions as you would expect. It gives you all the data needed to make safe choices whether you're in the wilderness or on the sea. If you happen to be out on the water, be assured that your digital compass watch includes the same technology that made Suunto dive computers famous. Diving down to 100ft. is no problem for the Xlander Military. And when you're down there, safely and easily change the functions without doing any damage to your watch. Its rubber strap and aluminum case are tough and durable, and the black negative face makes it easy to read all that valuable information. A truly versatile watch, you can take this Suunto from land to water without a second thought. For more information on military and Suunto core watch please continue to read our articles.
