Good EDC watch, was thinking of getting it maybe.

>>684827466
It's an excellent choise. The GPS is very handy for me. I suggest you to get the Alpha version, because it has the red backlight. Much better in dark.

First of all, why are you so angry?
And to answer your question, I don't take my phone with me, if I absolutely don't have to and the watch has lots of feature that my phone doesn't have. It has a better compass and GPS, altimeter, barometer, pedometer, thermometer, simple heart rate monitor, etc. and most importantly the battery lasts for days or even weeks. It's really useful in everyday life, in the woods and in military exercises. It's also made in my home country, which is a nice bonus.

the watch diameter is too big for your wrist, it does not look good at all as it is ill-fitting.

Choose a smaller one.

There are watches and there are Watches. If I were to invest in a good timepiece, I'd make sure there's a mechanical engineer's wet dream under the dial.

>>684831700
Broke my buttons as well the first time around, good thing it was still under warranty. No where near as rugged as other models.

It would have cost nearly as much as a new Core to repair it, so I went for a new model.

Do you use the altimeter, when skydiving? I've always wondered, does it react fast enough and how reliable it is.
>>
>>684834523
It works great on the climb up in the plane when matched with my standard alti. But in freefall it doesn't react nearly fast enough to be used to any degree of accuracy. I can freefall a thousand feet before I even see the numbers change.

it's too small anon
>>
>>684835097
So there's some room for improvement. Basically it would only need a firmware update to add a skydiving mode, where the sampling frequency would be set higher. That's not going to happen for existing units though, because there is no port on the device. I think you should send feedback to Suunto. I did and a real person responded that the feedback had been forwarded to R&D, so at least that's better than nothing.

And you can have all that for very cheap but I wouldn't say everything else is useless. Just like in any other thing, one can appreciate the craftsmanship that went into a fine watch. I'm sure you would rather eat a nice steak than some McDiarrhea, drive an Audi rather than a Fiat and so on. I don't care about status but I care about what I invest my money in.

It's a pretty nice movement for a mass-produced Swiss Chronograph. I've serviced a couple of them and they seem to hold really good in terms of accuracy and maybe prolonged time periods without servicing.
>>684851099
I'm my opinion it's basically like Daniel Wellington. You put an 8 dollar quartz movement in a special designed case, throw something on that teenagers who don't know jackshit shit about watches like for example a NATO strap or the simple design and boom. You have a NOMOS for the simple minded.

It's used in some very expensive watches but it's quite ugly, it don't even have a column wheel. It's troublesome for a prestigious chronograph movement. Are you agree ?

>>684853103
Yes of course it's got some flaws. I too prefer column wheel chronographs because they're much more work safe. And yes of course it's used I some rather expensive watches. But again mechanical Chronograph watches are very expensive nowadays. Especially Swiss made.

Thanks. I'm just starting to get into watches so this helps.
>>684847767 is my current watch, still unsure whether I made a mistake. I don't have that high a budget, but do you have any recommendations for ~£100?

Yes the Chronograph seconds hand can suffer from light jerking. I've experienced this too. It's not something that is really a problem if you're timing something but it's really annoying and concerning if you look closely. Amazingly enough this can actually also happen to some Omega Speedmasters with the caliber 321 movement.

Well for £100 I would look into Orient or Seiko. You won't really find any mechanical Swiss made watches for those kind of money. But of course if you're fine with quartz there are of course Swiss quartz watches. Tissot for example would be nice to look into.
