You obviously don't own a Core. They truely DO suck. My first lasted most of a year but its replacement, which took a month to get, was DOA. They said its replacement would ship overnight but now say maybe sometime next week. That response change within 3hrs...Inventory control should show no watches in the "bin". Warranty work in 1 week...hmmm. The forum does mention problems, acknowledged, with rev 1 of Core software. I have owned three other Suunto models X-Lander, X6hrm and Observer. Only the X-Lander is still working. Quality...you bet. So...are you an employee of Suuntowatches or what.
