Before the AQUA was release from Suunto’s Elementum series I had never
considered Suunto as a brand I would ever buy I watch from. Pulse or GPS
watches have never been something I have been very interested in but the AQUA
didn’t just look cool it was also a serious dive watch. More of a dive computer
really. It actually enters dive mode automatically when being submerged into
water, showing both depth and water temperature, which is a pretty cool
feature.

#186 - The Suunto Elementum AQUA, ref. SS014528000. |

Here seen om my wrist right before the start of the annual Stockholm Midnight Run back in August 2013. |
My Suunto diver never got to witness any water activity so I never got the
chance to examine if its features worked properly. Instead I mostly used it for
running (?!). But even though I never used the AQUA as it was intended to be
used I still got the impression that it was a really well made watch and it
felt like straight through quality. I remember selling it to a guy who actually
was planning to use it for diving so that felt good.
