I withheld my opinion for 2 weeks due to the fairly thorough testing of the watch. The Suunto multifunctional watch for runners has 100% met my expectations. I deliberately chose a rough monochrome display, enclosed in a decent casing made of mineral glass, resistant to scratches and shattering, so that the device will serve me for a long time for the purposes for which it was created. Although Suunto Traverse does not have a built-in heart rate monitor, it integrates with a dedicated chest strap from this company, so in order not to increase the height of the case, I deliberately chose this model and not another. But to the point: I did 100 km with a watch for 2 weeks. What I like the most about it are: 1. A very durable battery. I normally run for about an hour a day, up to 2 hours on Saturdays, and there is absolutely no chance of draining my watch. In full-function mode, the battery discharges at a rate of 10% per hour, giving you 10 hours of continuous monitoring. For amateur runners it is a lot, but you can collect data not every 1 second, and every 5 seconds, the batteries are theoretically enough for 5 times longer. For these 2 weeks, I only charged the watch once out of the box, as it is almost discharged at the factory. Just plug it in for 5 minutes to sync data with the Suunto web-app, and the watch already grabs 10-15% of the battery more. So, if I use 10% of the battery while running everyday, then during 5 minutes of pairing with the PC, the watch catches electricity again. This is what I expected from the device as it is primarily a watch, albeit with sporty functions. 2. It visually matches my rock style with a leather jacket and tight jeans. It is unlikely to be suitable for a suit, but for all other garments, e.g. smart casual, by all means. 3. GPS - right after leaving the house, I start the running mode. The watch searches for a GPS for about 2-5 seconds maximum. It catches the signal very quickly. I run a lot in forests and I do not lose my range. Draws the route very nicely which agrees with Suunto maps and google maps. 4. The step counter is a rather abstract and imprecise thing, but it can roughly tell you how many "steps" we have taken (it counts the average stride length with distance traveled, not based on GPS, but on the accelerometer). He does not count the steps while driving the bus. Also not while sitting in front of the PC. However, when we walk and wave our hand - yes. 5. The watch also counts calories burned, but I have not read on what basis yet. The settings include height, weight and other things that probably calculate somehow based on the distance traveled by GPS. These are the basic functions that I needed. I counted on a good GPS the most - if I had one before, I would not get lost in the woods far from home. And it happened to me twice in the last 2 months before I bought the watch. Now you can plan routes in the browser, upload to your phone and activate the displayed route while running. The GPS locates the watch and you have to be blind to miss the target. Perhaps I will still stick to the brightness. During the day you can see the display very well. Everything is clear and sharp. But already in the evening, without the built-in backlight option, it's hard to do. However, the backlight can also be configured: a. Brightness and contrast backlight, which should be stronger, i.e. the letters should be more black or white (depending on the color of the dial: black or white and then we see the numbers alternately. If the dial is black, then the letters are bright. And vice versa. Improving the brightness in the settings does not give too much - even at 100% brightness. When it is already dark, sometimes you have to use the screen backlight. The manufacturer has to work on it). b. screen backlight: it is possible to configure in several modes, i.e. normal, when one button responsible for this function is pressed, and the second mode, when the backlight is turned on by pressing any button. The buttons themselves work quite hard, which means that there is no chance of pressing them accidentally while bending the arm. The jump is low, but you have to use some force. This is very cool because you can feel that you have a decent watch in your hand, not a plastic toy. You can also lock the screen to prevent accidental pressing. It is enough to hold the button responsible for this function longer. The strap is rubber but nice to the skin to the touch. It is easy to clean from dried sweat (sometimes you can see salt, white coating, if the hand is sweating a lot). The close distances in the holes allow you to adjust the clamp to the thickness of the hand. I would like to praise the battery once again, as it is an element that will make you forget that this watch is a "smartwatch". Apparently, watches Sunnto, Garmin and similar are referred to as a "sportwatch", but when the battery is in the watch mode for about 2 weeks, and in sports mode for the whole day, you can convince yourself of such devices. Comparing it, for example, to the Apple Watch, where the battery drops after 1.5 days, it is heaven and earth. It is possible that in a few years, when this watch breaks down or I want to replace it, the next model will also be Suunto - but maybe this time with a color display. And necessarily with GPS! "
