SUUNTO, global leader in sports watches, dive computers and precision instruments, launched its newest flagship watch, the SUUNTO 9 Peak, the thinnest, most powerful and uncompromisingly durable watch in brand history.
Inspired by the award-winning SUUNTO 9 Baro, the SUUNTO 9 Peak is designed for adventures and peak experiences, in a sleek form factor that fits seamlessly on the wrist for ultimate comfort.
Tested in the harshest conditions, the SUUNTO 9 Peak boasts up to 170 hours of GPS recording capacity in Tour mode, blood oxygen measurement, a full battery charge in one hour and built to match users’ high expectations for a sports wearable companion, training tool and adventure partner.
“When we design a new watch, we start by assessing the desired user experience and combine that with our latest technology developments. We found that many people wanted all the features of the SUUNTO 9 Baro, but in a smaller, streamlined form factor, without compromising on battery life or the feature set. Our team of designers and engineers worked closely together to develop SUUNTO 9 Peak as an answer to this need,” says Heikki Norta, SUUNTO’s president. “Building on our heritage of 85 years crafting products for adventure, we are proud to release this watch with a new minimalistic Nordic design.”
The SUUNTO 9 Peak comes with all of the industry leading features the SUUNTO 9 family is known for: 80-plus sport modes like running, hiking, mountain biking, skiing and swimming, customizable screens to show the most relevant data for your exercise, an intelligent battery management system, accurate wrist-based heart rate monitoring, in-depth weather insights and expansive on-watch navigation capabilities.
“SUUNTO 9 Peak is a premium, visibly sublime yet a perceivably tough watch. The innovative strap is a pleasure to the wear, the case back sleek and unobtrusive, the bezel simple, so sophisticated. 14 years in building SUUNTO, I’ve seen remarkable innovations in our R&D approaches to all our watches. SUUNTO 9 Peak is unequivocally the finest yet. Personally it’s my signature watch, it’s become an extension of me,” said Sharmin Photographer, Head of Asia in SUUNTO.
