I saw lots of people who are having problems with their Core compasses which are showing alittle different directions than a magnetic compass.

This happens because magnetic North and true North are not at the same location, you must set the declination on your compass. The angle in between magnetic and true north in your location on earth is called declination.
The magnetic North changes everyyear even everytime that's why we need to set and correct this value at least one time a year.

I found a website which includes the declination values according to locations. The link is below.
Magnetic Declination

I hope it can be helpful for core users.

i wanna ask couple questions about suunto core all black and regular black.

i wanna buy one of them but i cant decide which.

i really like the all black but i am wondering if i can have screen and contrast problems in sun or dark.

Can any core all black or Core regular black user tell me

did they have any problems to read the screen in heavy sunlight or in dark?

which one should i prefer to buy not to have that problems?

The second question that

i've heard about some software problems in earlier suunto cores.
are that problems solved in all new ones?

i wanna buy one of them from this website.

do they have all new sofware?

or

which one (all black or regular black) has the latest version of sofware?

thanks from now ]]> hemre http://forum.suuntowatches.com/suunto-core-suunto-lumi/4670-core-all-balck-vs-core-regular-black.html http://forum.suuntowatches.com/suunto-core-suunto-lumi/4669-two-serial-numbers.html Tue, 17 Aug 2010 08:23:01 GMT Two weeks ago I bought a Suunto Core watch, and on the back of my core i have two serial numbers, one of them is crossed out.

I'm considering either the Core or the Lumi and leaning toward the Lumi for its looks and less bulk. From specs it appears the only functional difference is the lack of a lapse timer on the Lumi. Is this correct? Why then does the Core generally cost ~$50 more then the Lumi? Do they have the same sensors?

Thanks,

If it does, is there anything that can be done to prevent it setting off the metal detector?

Usually airport security asks passengers to put their watches and contents of their pockets in a bin which goes through the x-ray machine. The compass on a Suunto Core can be ruined by x-rays. If I need to do that, I would rather put my Core in my luggage. Do they x-ray the luggage? ]]> JWBlue http://forum.suuntowatches.com/suunto-core-suunto-lumi/4354-walking-through-airport-security-suunto-core.html http://forum.suuntowatches.com/suunto-core-suunto-lumi/4334-core-thermometer.html Thu, 22 Jul 2010 14:10:27 GMT hi, so i have 2 cores green and both had issues on Thermometer. one have +252C on temp and other -375C , lol and they are stucked... others configurations are okay. any tips for me besides warranty? hi,
