wearing this thang
JohnGchrist:  

Opinions still in testing but after a month of use this is what I have come to. The ski program only logs up and down and time. I hoped it would log temp as well. It is pretty easy to use the program not much to be confused about. Cycling through the watch is pretty easy after getting used to where everything is and what everything does. I wish there was a way to put the time temp and alt all on one face and a quicker way to switch the logging times. Over all the watch does everything I want it to it just didn't give me that knock my socks off wow this watch is crazy feeling. I'm still trying to figure out how to use the alt/barometer setting to give me the alt. It seems to always need adjusting. Over all I would buy this watch again.


great altimeter watch
Alpinelight:  

I've used my S6 for two full years now, and it's become indispensible for winter backcountry, trekking, and mountain biking. Can't imagine heading into the wilderness without it.The altimeter is quite accurate (although you still need to understand how an altimeter works...). Altitude-based alarms are a great help when visibility is low. The compass is helpful for general use, although obviously is not set up to use with a topo. Other than that, it's nice to track the total ascent/descent for a day of snowboard or mountain biking.Where else can you get this kind of info on your wrist? I've tried other altimeter watches (to remain nameless) and was very unimpressed with reliability. Suunto has it together.
