The Suunto X9 is a cross-sport GPS wristop computer. It combines GPS functionality with an altimeter, barometer, compass, and thermometer. The watch is bigger than the average watch, but it’s packed with lots of great features. It was designed for hikers, mountaineers, trekkers, hunters, fishermen, and other outdoors-lovers. An outdoors man
can plan routes at home with a map, and save them to the watch. In the field, the watch can tell you which way to go, how fast you’re moving, how far you’ve traveled, how far you have to go, and when you will get there.
This watch was voted ‘Best Product of 2004′ by Fortune Magazine (issue 12/2004).
