Suunto Observer TT Wrist-Top Computer Watch with Altimeter, Barometer, and Compass (Titanium)

On the plus side, this watch includes just about every kind of data you need to be a cyborg and in a cool packaging. Its smaller than a typical Suunto watch which is just nice for everyday use. Previous Suunto watches are just too big.

However, the functions can be confusing. Manual is not that helpful either. Just have to get used to the functions. There's so many functions in there it takes time to tweak and learn to use them. For example, I have my altitude on the default setting, and on the street of Shanghai (which is not to far from the sea) it shows that I'm 120m below sea level. I'm sure its wrong but I'm still trying to figure what made it think that Shanghai is the lowest city on earth.

I would still recommend the Observer though, but if you're in the wild, don't bet your life on it. Works well in the city though, makes an excellent conversation item....

This watch is a combination of many features that will prove useful for outdoor and Ski trips. You can use it also in town with a suit.
If you buy it, choose the titanium version, it's worth the extra dollars as it is quite sleeker and lighter as well.

Just bought the Observer,

Awesome.
Perfect balance of form & function. Possible to wear out when being a gentleman, or out when being a hooligan. Great for ease of use and smaller than previous designs Suunto.

Go on treat yourself, Titanium beats anything on the market. Great fun in lifts too with the altimeter!
