I was about to buy a Suunto Core watch, when Joe mentioned that he had this Suunto Core all Black watch to review. So I took him up on the offer to try it before I buy it. Now the hardest part is returning it. <\/p>\n

The all black watch is pretty stylish. While I wouldn’t wear it with a suit, it’s sharp looks fit in at casual places.  At first I thought the large face wouldn’t work well with my small wrists, but it quickly grows on you. I was even able to rock climb without much issue. <\/div>\n

The compass was useful for re-orienting ourselves with maps and landmarks, but my favorite feature was the altimeter. It may not be accurate enough for skydiving, but for a mountain biker obsessed with how far we’ve descended or how much higher we need to climb it perfectly fits the bill.<\/p>\n
