  • Solid piece of kit
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
Bought this “like new” and basically it was NEW for all intents and purposes. Could not see any signs of wear. Included all printed materials, manuals etc. All functions as intended and all features work. There is a little bit of a learning curve on all of the functions which will take a few minutes to figure out. The display is a little dark and it is hard to read symbols as they are tiny. The temp function seems to about 6 degrees off even when placed upside down or hanging by buckle with no part of the Watch body touching anything. The other features seem to work well. The compass is very accurate and has been checked against my military issue compass. I am dubious about the water resistances of this watch after seeing the way it is sealed in the battery compartment. The display is visual with NVG (when back light is on) even without the IR illuminator. It does reflect the IR back to you so be careful when you have the illuminator activated. The display is not viewable without the back light when using NVG. Overall it is a great watch and well worth the price. The battery life is a little bit of a concern but the ease of replacement makes up for the 6-10 month battery life. We will see if the mil spec certification is actually valid and warranted in time. ... show more

  • Great Tactical Watch
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
Comfortable, tactical, and functional. Perfect “dumb” watch for those working in secure facilities. Highly recommend.

  • Suunto core alpha watch.
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
I love the watch! FYI it is very hard to see indoors, but fine outside. There are videos on how to adjust contrast and all the features which helped a bunch.

  • MALA ILUMINACION
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
EL PRODUCTO ME GUSTA MUCHO . PERO SU FALTA DE ILUMINACION ES LA CLAVE POR LA QUE DECIDI DEVOLVERLO .A PESAR DE QUE EN LA FOTO DE LA WEB SE VE TAN NITIDO LAS LETRAS ROJAS Y NUMEROS ES UNA FARZA , AL ILUMINAR TODO SE VE DISTORCIONADO Y BORROSO . REPITO EL RELOJ ES GENIAL , PERO NO CUMPLE CON LO MINIMO PARA PODER MIRAR Y VER SUS DATOS . TOTALMENTE BORROSO Y ESCASO DE ILUMINACION DETALLE QUE NO SE POR QUE LO FABRICAN ASI , NI UN MILITAR EN CONDICIONES TAN SILENCIOSAS QUERRIA UN RELOJ ASI , NECESITA VER LOS DATOS Y EN ENTORNOS OSCUROS ES PERO. YO COMPRE LA VERSION SUUNTO CORE DESDE UN INICIO Y NO ME GUSTO , LA DEVOLVI Y ENTONCES COMPRE ESTE PENSANDO EN LA DESCRIPCION Y ENGAÑADO DE LA IMAGEN EN LA WEB , QUE SE VE TAN BIEN ESOS NUMEROS ROJOS RESALTANTES Y RESULTO PEOR . ESA ES MI OPINION NO COMPRARE JAMAS DE ESTA MARCA ... ... show more

  • Smartest dumb watch
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
The media could not be loaded. What I mean by the title is its the smartest watch that isn't hooked up to cell or Bluetooth. It is a feature rich survival watch that comes in handy when doing outdoor activities. Keep in mind this this is the "stealth" version meant to be a little less flashy. I kindly disagree with people complaining that it's too dark to read in the sunlight. The stealth version is meant to be... more stealthy. It's not going or be super bright and flashy and being a little more dim helps prolong the battery life. When clicking the button to activate the back light there is plenty of glow from it to read in any brightness. Highly recommend this awesome watch for outdoors people who want cool things like compass, altimeter, it even warns of pressure drops which could indicate a storm coming. Feels very rugged and the cloth band helps to breath a bit more compared to a rubber wrist band. ... show more

  • Great watch, wear it daily, very rugged.
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
This is my daily watch and Iove it after several months. A perfect daily watch for somebody who doesn't want to deal with charging a smart watch but wants a lot of the same functions. Functions are easy to setup like sunrise-sunset and everything else, box came in great condition. I wear it hiking, surfing, swimming, just about anywhere and it has passed every test without failure. Dial still spins great and sand has not crept in anywhere. Highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Dim display, bogus and unfair return fees
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
Cool watch but display is too dim. Returned next day, but got charged a bogus damage/restocking fee even when it said they may IF it’s damaged or missing. I didn’t even wear the watch! Be very careful about returns. AMZN charges fees even if you return in perfect condition. Customer service has become very dysfunctional and rude in the last couple of years. ... show more

  • My go-to watch
Style: Alpha Color: Stealth
I had worn an original Suunto Core watch for years. It was by far my favorite out of my collection. I had debated buying this one for months. I finally pulled the trigger when it went on sale before Christmas. I had issues with the previous watches rubber wrist bands. They would typically break after a year or so of daily use. I was not willing to spend $60 for a factory band, so I replaced with aftermarket, and it worked just as well. This new watch has a nylon strap that should prove to last much longer. The only downside is that it is more prone to twisting on my wrist. It is however more comfortable to wear overall. The face is easy to read except in bright sunlight. The red backlight is a cool feature. Everything else works like you would expect from Suunto. Be advised that these watches use at least one battery a year. I keep a couple of spares in my briefcase and in the tool drawer at home. ... show more
