Suunto was founded in 1936 by an enthusiast of the outdoors and orienteering who wanted to design a better compass. Finnish inventor Tuomas Vohlonen wanted to improve on standard magnetic compasses by having steadier needles for better accuracy, and his success pointed everyone looking for a compass in Suunto’s direction. Over the years, Suunto has continued to create and improve upon compasses and performance watches for all sports conditions. Today, Suunto has incorporated tiny computers into its watches to monitor everything from air pressure to heartbeat. Suunto is prided on being a leading designer and manufacturer of training watches, compasses and other sports instruments for running, diving, mountaineering, skiing, sailing and golf.
