Suunto Yachtsman Sailing Watch

The Suunto Yachtsman Sailing Watch has been developed in co-operation with some of the top sailors in the world with experience from the Whitbread Around the World Race to the World Championships.

The Suunto Yachtsman has many sophisticated functions in a medium-sized and stylish casing with a heavy-duty marine nylon/neoprene or durable leather strap and looks equally impressive behind the helm or around the boardroom table.

The Suunto Yachtsman Sailing Watch features an accurate calendar watch with dual time, Suunto's famous digital compass and a barometer as well as a sailing timer especially designed to meet the timing function requirements before and during a tough race. Despite its exclusive looks, the Yachtsman is solid as a rock.

Other features include easy-to-use logic, a large display with big numerals, an electro-luminescent backlight as well as a user-replaceable battery.

The non-allergenic aluminium casing and the durable mineral crystal glass combined with a weatherproof leather band make the Suunto Yachtsman the ultimate tool for discerning boaters.

The Yachtsman is shockproof and waterproof to 30 m (100 ft).

A Reliable Timekeeper

The Suunto Yachtsman Sailing Watch allows the user to set the time left to start and synchronise the timer with the race committee at any time by a push of a button. Large numerals and audible warning signals let you see the display at a glance.

The calendar watch of the Yachtsman is pre-programmed to the year 2089, has 3 daily alarms, a regular stopwatch and countdown timer and dual time.

Keep the Right Course

The electronic compass is a great tool for any sailor. It shows you your bearing and cardinal or half-cardinal point, a North-South arrow, and features a bearing tracking function which displays locked bearing, actual bearing and the difference between the two. Yachtsman also allows for declination adjustment. The rotating bezel with a ratchet at every 5 degrees is especially useful when memorizing wind direction before the start of a sailing race.

Keep One Step Ahead of the Storm

In addition to current barometric pressure and temperature, the Yachtsman gives pressure-related data for the past 4 days: the first 6 hours at 1-hour intervals and after that at 6-hour intervals.

The resolution of the barometer is 1 mbar/0.05 inHg. When the reference altitude is correctly set, the instrument also shows the present sea-level pressure, which makes it easier to read and understand the barometric pressure at high altitudes.
