Heart rate monitor manufacturer Suunto has launched the Core Extreme Edition Red, the latest edition to its Core range aimed at outdoor sports enthusiasts.
And we think its packing the kind of features that would prove to be dead handy on a ride. Inside the sleek and compact watch hides an altimeter (accurate to 29,500 feet), barometer and compass so that information such as current elevation and elevation gained/lost can be provided on the clear display.
Watch functions include time, dual time, date, alarm, sports chronograph and a countdown timer. The automatic altimeter/ barometer mode switches between altimeter and barometer depending on the activity and so shows the most relevant information for each situation.
The Suunto Core Extreme Edition Red will be available from November 2009.
