Barometer The Suunto Observer & its barometric functions provide you with valuable information for forecasting weather changes. Information on the present sea level pressure helps you read & understand the barometric pressure at high altitudes. Alti/ Baro lock This unique feature means that you can use your Suunto Observer as a weather station, or an altimeter. When Suunto Observer is used as an altimeter, the sea-level pressure reading is locked. When the altimeter function is activated, all pressure changes are interpreted as altitude changes, & the sea-level pressure reading displayed will not change, although the absolute pressure reading does. When Suunto Observer is used as a weather station, the altitude reading is locked. When the barometer function is activated, all pressure changes are interpreted as weather changes, & the measured changes will therefore only affect the pressure reading in the barometer mode. These changes will not affect the altitude reading, thus enabling instant weather forecasts. Compass The compass shows the cardinal or half-cardinal point abbreviated & indicates the North with an arrow. The compass can be set to track a certain bearing, & graphically show the difference between it & the actual bearing. This is a valuable tool, when trying to get back on track after minor or major detours in the terrain. The declination adjustment function allows the user to correct the difference between true North & magnetic North. Watch Suunto Observer also has a calendar clock pre-programmed to the year 2089 with three daily alarms, a dual time display, & a stopwatch with lap & split time measurement. The stopwatch stores up to 99 laps & split times for one run. The time can either be shown in 12 or 24-hour format.
