Other watches made for mountains

Athletes’ choice

With full topo touchscreen mapping, compatibility with four satellite systems, and an amazing battery life, the Coros Apex Pro is the watch of choice for mountain running phenomenon Kilian Jornet.

It’s also just been reduced in price by a whopping £100 to £349 – an excellent price for a watch of this calibre.

Titanium tech

Made in Finland with 100% renewable energy, this ultra-light titanium version of the awardwinning Suunto 9 Peak (£609) is the thinnest and toughest watch made by Suunto. With GPS navigation, health/ fitness monitoring, and an impressive battery life, it’s ideal for any adventure.

Classic ruggedness

It may look like a stylish traditional high-end timepiece – which it is – but it’s surprisingly tough too. Waterproof, shock resistant, and engineered to perfection, the Elliot Brown Canford Mountain Rescue Edition (£385) was made by outdoor people, for outdoor people, and £36 of every purchase goes to Mountain Rescue.
