Our Review of the Suunto M3
In competitive sailing and windsurfing, getting a good start is about being in the right place at the right time. Suunto M3 helps make sure that that is exactly where you are.
To get you to the right place on the start line - and at the right time, Suunto M3 not only helps you to determine the favored end of the start line, but it also displays the time to the start line in connection with the start timer to help you cross the line at just the right moment.
Loud signals and large numbers, together with a race timer for easy synchronization with the race committee, mean that you won't be caught napping when it's time for the off.

Perfect form and function
Reviewer: Wilfred Poiesz , CA

This watch works great, looks great and is not one of those other "over the top" sailing timers. Besides the advantages spelled out so well in other reviews, I think its value is in being 100% sailing timer and be able to wear it every day. It enables to fully understand the many functions and use it intuitively. This makes it so much more effective when i need those quick timer changes or use multiple timers while on the race course. The multiple timers and alarms prove to be very effective to remind me during race preparations before the actual race starts (and not forget to call my wife once in a while)

Junk
Reviewer: PWL , Milwaukee, WI

Horrendous craftsmanship. I've used this watch for 1/2 a sailing season and it's failing apart. The rotating bezel broke off after 10 races, the wristband tail keeper tore and fell off after 15 races and then the wrist band itself detached from the watch. I'm not doing crazy round the world races either I'm the fore deck guy on a J105. Just a note about the rotating bezel: Any good sailor should now how to figure out the favored side of a course without this useless gadget but because it gives the watch some aesthetic appeal loosing it off the watch is a bummer. The only redeeming quality about this watch is the LARGE display that can be seen from any angle making the countdown feature very helpful when your not sitting still i.e. every start just about. No compass or barometer for this price is lame as well. I had a cheap Casio for 5 years and it never fell apart. I thought I'd upgrade to a high quality watch now that I make more ching, mistake. I wouldn't recommend this watch to anyone.

Great watch, directions are nonexistant. The book tells you nothing about all the features, nor does it explain well anything about the watch.

Great Sailing Watch
Reviewer: Anonymous , California
Date: December 28, 2006
Needed a better way of timeing races and this watch had all the things that I needed. There are three main things that make this watch awsome. First, the timers and count down functions make timing race starts a snap no matter how the race start is timed. (for example: A "5 min after a signal" vs. a specific start time.) Second, the features and controls are easy to understand and work. There are even indicators that show where you are in the menu system. Third, it is a good looking, easy to read watch with large numbers and customizable displays. I wear mine daily and most folks don't know that it is a race watch. Get this watch and you won't be dissappointed.

It is an excellent watch and really fun to have. I bought it for my boyfriend and he just loves it (and so do I!) He has not had one problem with it and he likes the fit. It is bigger then your average watch, but it does so much more. If you are going to own one watch - make it a Suunto. It is worth it!
