My favourite press releases are the ones where you're not sure what the product is until about halfway down. This is one of them. I had all sorts of visions of what a 'sports instrument' might be - was it like a high tech baton? Could it be magic trainers that make you run 10 times faster? It is with some regret that I have to inform you that it is in fact a watch. Or 'daily timepiece' as Suunto refer to it as.
It's no ordinary watch though. This one has been specifically designed with women in mind, so features an advanced altimeter, barometer, and compass functions with new benefits including sunrise and sunset times, personal day counter, an intuitive user interface, and a menu in four languages. Oh no, hang on, it's designed with women in mind so the straps are customisable, and you can hang it as a pendant. I get it now.
