When it comes to watches, elegance and digital are two words rarely spoken together, well positively that is. When most women think of elegant watches, they think about watches that just sit and look pretty, watches that win in the style stakes but lose when it comes to features. You would never imagine an elegant watch to have a digital display, elegant watches are delicate with diamonds aren't they? But what about a watch that looks good and has something going on upstairs? Now diamonds are wonderful, diamonds are a girl's best friend, but they are no good substitute for a compass when out trekking. The Suunto Lumi is the watch that brings together fashion and function, the watch that brings a touch of glamour to the outdoors. The watch that unites the words elegant and digital, digital? Yes digital, the Lumi features a digital display, yet it is suprisingly elegant.
Suunto know its not illegal to like active outdoor pursuits but still look good. They know that there must be plenty of us women out there who want to enjoy the great outdoors, but also want to look good at the same time. Now the fashion police may not patrol woodland areas but still that is no excuse to look a right old mess is it girls? If you are a girl who loves trekking and adventure, the Lumi is for you. Instead of carrying around your oversized handbag to pack all your gadgets into when out in the wilderness, you should take the Lumi. The Lumi packs an altimeter, barometer, stopwatch and a digital compass all into one elegant unit, try fitting all of those into the latest Miu Miu.
The Lumi isn't even that big, you would think a unit packed with so many gadgets would be rather large and cumbersome but it's really not. It may be the sister of the Suunto Core, but like many siblings its not the same size, the Lumi is the Core's little sister not it's identical twin. Don't get us wrong we aren't claiming the Lumi is as small and dainty as a normal formal watch, no what we are saying is the Lumi is functional and feminine. With a smooth rounded body and a clean minimalist screen, it's obvious why the watch was named after the Finnish word for snow. After all it has a barometer and weather trend indicator and what weather condition is more beautiful than snow?
The term brains and beauty couldn't be more appropriate, the Lumi speaks four languages, English, French, Spanish and German. Like your own personal assistant, the Lumi will count to and from special days you want to remember, will inform you about sunrise and sunset times for over 400 locations worldwide and will keep a log of your activities, you overall duration, your altitude and how high you have climbed. Plan your outfit and be prepared for the weather, the Lumi will use it's barometer to forecast the weather and will recieve storm warnings. Plus of course the Lumi shows the time, has a stopwatch and an alarm.
Beauty, versatility and hardcore outdoor functionality all rolled into one, the Suunto Lumi is perfectly suited to formal occasions as much as it is to your next outdoor adventure. This versatility is possible due to easily interchangeable straps, change the strap to suit your mood or the occasion. Outdoors you may want to use the Sportif strap, practical and plain yet still pretty due to the range of colours available, think bright yellows and pinks, colours previously unavailable on a outdoors watch. When it comes to more glamorous occasions, go for the Florette strap which features a pretty floral design that brings femininity and features together. If you don't want to wear the Lumi on your wrist it can be worn as a pendant using the pendant string and carabiner jacket. The carabiner jacket opens up a world of possibilities for the Lumi, allowing it to be attached just about anywhere.
Ladies if you are into hiking, rock climbing, kayaking or skiing, don't be pigeon-holed into using manly products, forget geeky clunky watches that drown your wrist, instead bring elegance to the outdoors with the Suunto Lumi.
