Review on 🌲 SUUNTO Core: The Ultimate Outdoor Sports Watch by Bryan Reynolds

I've had a Suunto heart for about three years and wear it exclusively (including while I was in Iraq) so I think this review is more worth reading than anyone who read it a week has long. I'll start with the positive things. The watch head is very solid and all functions work as advertised. Now for the negative; The material from which the bracelet is made is very brittle, it seems that when it dries it rots and cracks. I used to have to change bands every year, which doesn't sound bad, but they're $50 each. The battery life is terrible and I don't even use altitude, barometer, depth and compass regularly. I change the battery at least 3 times a year. Customer service is terrible, if the strap breaks the first time Suunto won't replace it even if it's under warranty. I would not recommend that.
