OK, we've re-written our review at
www.suuntowatches.com to indicate the lack of volume on the alarm. We've also passed the info onto
Suunto Oy to see if they can make any improvements; but overall I think everyone would agree it's a great watch. I guess something just had to give in order to get everything in a package 1/3 smaller then every other watch they made; and then the steel body didn't help the alarm volume either.
Thanks again for all of the feedback and comments.
