Suunto has refreshed its diving wearable lineup with two brand-new models. The Nautic and Nautic S hit the market at the same time, and while they’re quite distinct from each other, both can be utilized together during dives.
Nautic Dive Computer
Starting with the Nautic, this dive computer resembles a large smartwatch. It features a 3.26-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 720 x 382 pixels, all housed in a 101 x 60 x 23.7 mm casing that weighs 227 g, or 232 g with its elastic textile strap. The device is capable of withstanding water pressure up to 200 meters, and it offers a battery life ranging from 80 to 190 hours.
Features and Specifications
In addition, the Nautic is equipped with GPS and has 32 GB of storage for offline maps, along with a digital compass. The smaller Nautic S shares similar features, but its battery life is estimated between 40 to 60 hours while diving. It’s also only rated for waterproofing up to 100 meters. Unfortunately, the Nautic S doesn’t include several smartwatch functions like a heart rate monitor, even though it has a 1.43-inch AMOLED screen with a resolution of 466 x 466 pixels that suggests it could serve as a smartwatch.
Pricing and Availability
The Nautic S is priced at $499, which is $200 less than the Nautic that comes with a bungee cord and $400 cheaper than the Suunto Ocean released last year (current price $899 on Amazon). On the other hand, the Nautic is available for $725 with an Elastic Textile Strap, and $999 for a version that includes a Bungee Cord attachment and a Tank Pod.
