I bought my black yellow colour suunto in January 2009. Its a great looking watch with lots of useful functions. Most of my friend said that my Suunto is very cool and they like it design. The alt and baro is accurate. I work near SFO so Im able to check my watch baro reading against weather observations (METAR) broadcast for that location. The alt is usually equivalent to the reading I get from my flight instrument when flying and with the alt I can measure the heigh of trees and cellular Tower arround the trees. Its a great looking watch but if you need a serious adventure watch, keep looking.
The most interesting of this product is the compass also can work properly even we just dive underwater
