Suunto have announced its new Vertical GPS adventure watch which features free offline smart features, solar charging, unbeatable battery life, and is made in Finland with 100% renewable energy.
This new adventure watch has been designed for outdoor expeditions and committed training. showcasing toughness, offline maps and accuracy all through solar charging.
The GPS adventure sports watch is being described as a “reliable guide for exploring the highest peaks, the steepest valleys and everywhere in between.”
The Suunto Vertical will be equipped with outdoor offline maps free of charge globally, and by using the app’s heatmaps, users can discover routes easily, along with 3D maps and road surface type layers.
Suunto are offering greater safety and confidence with this.
Head of Suunto ANZ, Damian Commane has said, “Suunto appeals to a wide range of Australian customers, but all crave detailed and accurate information and a watch that will spend more time on their wrist than on a charger. The Suunto Vertical is engineered to take sports watch performance to a new level as it delivers best-in-class battery life and a wide range of features to empower and motivate.”
“While extending our deep heritage in sports watches and precision instruments, the Suunto Vertical also offers comprehensive offline maps which, when combined with battery life that is boosted by solar charging, means we can deliver our most premium product to date.”

Tour Mode will provide accurate tracking, and offer 500 hours of continuous exercise tracking.
