Suunto Ambit

The Ambit, from Finnish watch manufacturer Suunto, is the next level of precision and durability in GPS ready multi-sport watches. The Ambit comes equipped with a bevy of features, including a unique 3D compass, barometer, barometric altimeter, thermometer, weather station, dual time zones, heart rate monitor and alarm. However, the best feature is the Ambit’s SiRFIV chip powered GPS, which is why Suunto aptly calls it “The GPS for Explorers”. The Ambit manages waypoint navigation as well as renders the location in conjunction with several other coordinate systems. It can blend information from the GPS connection and the accelerometer to provide highly accurate pace and speed measurement.

At the end of your adventure you can sync data collected using the Ambit with Movescount.com, where you can export trails to TracksEdge for us to help you display your climb. Powered by a rechargeable Lithium ion battery, the Ambit has an impressive battery life of 50 hours with GPS enabled, so you can keep using this GPS for two straight days without worrying about recharging. Definitely a great choice for your next adventure!
