To achieve that relentless quest for an outstanding style while having an extremely accurate compass, we had to keep enough space for the compass card to move freely. Giving it a movement margin of 30 degrees tilt, is to give enough space for the compass card to rotate with minimum friction to align accurately to the magnetic poles. Meanwhile we work on each detail of the case, to chase micro millimetres, that is how we achieve the result of a height of 13.5mm, ranking amongst the thinnest watch chronograph.

 While calculating angles between magnetic pole and sun’s position on the horizon gives you the natural time it is however challenged by the time zones that are human creation and not based on the reality. Yet again to tackle that challenge, we source inspiration from the pilot watch that use bezel. We implemented a bezel moving on both direction, with 120 clics to get as close as needed to the timezone time. That is how combining nature and innovative design we sought out the way only by reading the elements to have an accurate time.

In 1953, Suunto began crafting precision navigational instruments for professionals, establishing itself as a pioneer in exploration. With the acquisition of Recta AG, a revered Swiss watchmaker since 1897, Suunto inherited a legacy of artisanal expertise and meticulous Swiss craftsmanship. Compass are manufactured in Norway using renewable energy.
