The Garmin Fenix 3 is a great choice for those looking for a watch with multiple functions. It offers 24x7 HR data recording, including resting HR data, and allows users to add different events other than the several ones pre-loaded. The new strap is also softer and has more give than the rubber F3 strap. However, some users may find it difficult to get comfortable with all the functionality in this watch.

Verdict

The Suunto Core Alu is a great watch for backpackers, photographers, and international-traveler types. It has an intuitive menu system, is comfortable to wear, and has accurate instruments. However, it is prone to scratches and damage if used outdoors, has a dim display even when backlit, and the battery life could be better.
