Suunto Oy

Suunto Oy is a Finnish company specializing in the manufacturing and marketing of sports watches, dive computers, compasses, and other precision instruments. Headquartered in Vantaa, Finland, the company's core mission, since its founding in 1936, is to provide reliable tools that enable explorers, athletes, and adventurers to push their limits and navigate challenging environments.

Suunto's product portfolio caters to outdoor enthusiasts, athletes, and divers, featuring advanced sports watches like the Suunto Vertical and Suunto Race series, as well as dive computers such as the Suunto Ocean and D5. The company also produces traditional precision compasses and offers digital services and applications for activity tracking and training.

In May 2022, Suunto was acquired by Liesheng, a Chinese technology company, from its previous parent, Amer Sports. Despite the change in ownership, Suunto continues to operate from its Finnish headquarters, maintaining its brand identity, product development, and services under CEO and Brand President Heikki Norta. The company celebrated its 90th anniversary in February 2026, marking a long history of innovation in navigation and outdoor sports. Recent developments include significant updates to maps and navigation features for its watches and app in April 2026, and the anticipated release of a new Suunto Core 2 smartwatch with extended battery life and a refreshed Bluetooth heart rate monitor.
