The Suunto name is one that is well known among sports enthusiasts and other outdoor sorts. So it is not surprising that their divers watch selection is a popular one. What is surprising, however is where they come from. Suunto is a company based in Finland, which is hardly a warm-weather land and it makes a surprising capital for diving watches. Yet their line up includes a huge number of really quality offerings that should satisfy even the most ardent sportsman or woman.

There are about thirty different watches available in their diving genre, each which offers its own set of features.

One model is called Suunto D4 and is one of the top picks and is available in four different colors: pink, red, blue and yellow. It is one of the easiest of all their watches to use and it is nice that you get to pick and choose from the different colors. There are three dive modes offered and even a built-in dive planner. This way you can mark in the dates and times of any and all of your upcoming dives into your watch and never miss a date again.

Other features include temperature display, dive time shown in seconds, consumed bottom time graph, altitude adjustment and maximum depth alarm which sounds if you are going down further than you want to.

There is also Suunto D9 which has a lot to offer. It features wireless air integration and easy navigation. Even if you have never worked a Suunto watch before you will find it easy to program and play around with. There is also a built-in dive planner and an included PC interface. You can choose from a metallic or black wrist strap whichever you prefer.

If diving is not your sport of choice they also offer a wide range of watches that have built in altimeters and compasses. These make great navigation tools and are handy accessories for any mountaineer.
