Suunto watch help

-- Last Updated: Feb-27-11 1:10 PM EST --

Help. Did a archive search but found nothing. I got a Suunto X-Lander for Christmas. This is the Vector with a different housing. I am learning the features but have drawn a complete blank with two things: I can't figure out how to change the altimeter and barometer units. It is set for meters in the Alti mode and mbar in barometer mode. I would like feet and in hg respectively. I cannot find anything in the owner's manual and no combination of pushing buttons seems to get it. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Lakes are flat.
You start and end at the same elevation.
-No watch needed.

When the clouds turn dark, rain falls down.
Low pressure.
When there are no clouds, bright sun.
High Pressure.
-No watch needed.

Sun comes up, time to wake.
Sun goes down, time to sleep
-No watch needed.

Topo map in dry map case shows elevation
-No watch needed.

Are we there yet ?
- No
Are we there yet ?

Why did you need a watch.............

I just point mine at something and read off the bearing

Bingo!
That was exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much.

A baromoter is useful…
When traveling in areas where you don’t have access to a weather report, a barometer can help give an indication of what might be happening with the weather as the highs and lows come and go. Good way to determine if its just a quick squall coming through, or a hunker down and don’t bother to take down your camp kind of day.
