Isn't that Suunto a diving watch? Might not be a kids arm per se, could be someone like myself. hah. That last one is pretty cool, gives me a bit of a scale vibe.

Suunto is dive gear - but as I look at that one, its got a compass, altimeter and barometer, but I dont see depth gauge...but who knows

Re: Watch Aficionados?

Suunto makes all sorts of watches.

From ones that can aid in your Club Selection while you are out playing. To watches that can calculate your average speed of descent for skiing, as well as timing your lift laps (You set your base altitude at the 'finish' line, then when you get to the top you press the button and when you cross the line it stops and you get a time. You can then download to your computer and log your data over a year. With some GPS equipped ones you can map it out on Google Maps)

They make watches for whatever sport you can think of. The Golf one is super cool, you tell it what club you are using. Then you swing. It calculates your swing speed, and whether or not you swing was on plane. Then you walk to your ball. Using the built in GPS it tells you how far you hit that club.

It then over rounds calculates your average distance per club, and can tell you based on your swing plane data what sort of distance you are pulling/pushing your draws/fades and whatnot.

Therefor you can ask it for club advice after telling it the distance and whatnot. Very cool watch.

Re: Watch Aficionados?

That's a really slick Fossil you've got there Alex.

[popp]

Re: Watch Aficionados?

it's even nicer in person. It's almost a really dark bronze. It's not on the fossil web site, and the fossil store only had one in stock and it wasn't on display, I had to ask about it and then the clerk pulled it from the back......

I wore the suunto core to the zoo today, and parking lot is 67ft higher then the bridge that crosses into the zoo, the hippo house is 23ft lower then the lion's cages, the Gorilla house is 9 degrees hotter then outside, AND the kids park is 46 degrees north west of the elephant front doors
My wife said i'm a geek!

Re: Watch Aficionados?

I might see about a yellow rubber player today, the final of the series, feel like I should have at least one of them to bomb around in

Re: Watch Aficionados?

I managed to get a yellow rubber player off Nixonnow.com today, sold out in about 6 minutes I would say. Have to see how it looks on but figure it would not be hard to get rid of and free shipping too!
