Suunto Core Alpha Stealth unboxing and honest first impressions! Plus a little about the watch. 

Thanks so much for the kind words. It really is a great time putting these videos together and sharing with folks. And it really is absolutely amazing to hear from people, kind of like a small community. Have an awesome day!

I'm still wearing it every day and it's had some hard use. It's doing very well for me indeed.

@LibertyInChrist502 my alpha stealth didn't have one but the red/ black did. The one that had one had pre printed kind of false lcd screen and it easily came off. If yours doesn't look like there's anything on the screen there likely isn't. Hope this helped.

My thermometer is dead on once I take the watch off and leave it setting on its own for about a half hour. Your body temperature throws it off if you're wearing it. As far as the compass, once I followed the instructions to calibrate it, it was 100% on when I checked it buy a traditional magnetic compass as a cross reference. I hope this helps.

Yes

It is coated aluminum. Thus far mine has held up very well although I was using it with my chainsaw and when sharpening the chain accidentally ran a file across it which left a couple of fine scratches in it so that is something that can happen as far as small abrasions wearing the finish off the aluminum but as I say,for the most part mine has held up very well, I've actually been thinking about doing a follow-up video since this is the main watch I've been wearing since I filmed that video and I also picked up one more variation of the Suunto Core as well.

I'm not really sure the exact measurement but I've got pretty small wrists as things go.

I'm pretty sure it should.

I know that there are methods to adapt NATO bands to the Suunto Core, there are also a lot of nylon strap options that will fit this type of watch.
