Editorial Review: Product Description: The main features of Suunto Mariner include a sailing timer, barometer, compass and watch. Its easy-to-read display with large numerals, backlight, and audible warning signals let you concentrate more on maneuvering your vessel in demanding conditions, while Suunto Mariner keeps you informed on up-coming critical moments. Suunto Mariner features an accurate calendar watch with dual time, an electronic compass, a barometer as well as a sailing timer especially designed to meet the timing function requirements before and during a tough race. It is the most trusted first mate that gives you all the information you need in one compact package 24 hours a day. Amazon.com Product Description: The Suunto Mariner wrist-top computer/timepiece provides all the necessary information for making quick responsible decisions when sailing. Housed in an ABS plastic body with an oversized LCD screen, it combines time and date functions with a barometer, compass, and sailing timer. The sailing timer has been developed together with some of the top sailors in the world. Experience from the Whitbread Around the World Race and dinghy and keel boat World Championships has been put into one compact package that travels conveniently with you, keeping you up-to-date at all times. The electronic compass of the Suunto Mariner is a great tool for direction taking for any boater. It shows you your bearing and cardinal or half-cardinal points, a North-South arrow, and it features a bearing tracking function which displays locked bearing, actual bearing and the difference between the two. Together with the rotating bezel, you can easily determine the start line bias and memorize wind directions during the race start. The barometer function of Suunto Mariner keeps you one step ahead of the storm. In addition to current barometric pressure and temperature, Mariner displays the pressure trend of the last 6 hours and history for the past four days to let you really analyze and understand the upcoming weather. The Suunto Mariner is water resistant, tested to 100 meters/330 feet according to ISO 2281 standard, which means you can use it for swimming or other water sports activities--but it should not be used for scuba diving or freediving. What's in the Box This package includes the Suunto Mariner wrist-top computer and printed operating instructions. It is covered by a one-year warranty. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Mariner is not to Water FriendlyI bought this for my husband who is an avid sailor. He had a great experience with it until a little year after the purchase. I thought the battery was dying, but after replacing the battery, the screen was still not clear. I sent it to Suunto. They wanted to charge me $80 to have it repaired because apparently water got into the motherboard of the watch. My husband sails so maybe he had water splash on it on occassion, but he's never swam with it. I find it ridiculous that it's not water resistent ... Read More Rating:  - Excellent features, rugged. A bit big though...I'm extremely pleased with my Suunto Mariner. It is simply loaded with features that a sailor/racer wil find handy. It can also take a lot of abuse (clumsy me...). There are only two things I can think of where the Suunto Mariner comes up short: First is that it is a bit big when worn on your wrist. However, all Suunto watches are this size; and, once you get used to it, you stop noticing. Although it is big, it is very light in weight. Overall, it is very comfortable to wear. And, the benefit of having ... Read More |
