Suunto
Suunto founded in 1936 by outdoors man and a keen orienteering enthusiast, who had long been bothered by a problem: the inaccuracy of traditional dry compasses and their lack of steady needle operation. Being an engineer with an inventive turn of mind, he discovered and patented the production method for a much steadier needle, better readings and a new level of accuracy. Suunto’s first premium sports watch collection, Suunto Elementum. Suunto is a leading designer and manufacturer of sports instruments for training, diving, mountaineering, hiking, skiing, sailing and golf. Suunto combine the aesthetics and functionality of watches with sport-specifics.
