Bozeman, MT (PRWEB) October 01, 2013 -- Suunto Ambit 2 Sapphire has been named the best sailing watch for 2013 by the GPS experts at the Heart Rate Watch Company.

RUGGED and DATA DRIVEN

"This watch collects more sailing data than any other watch ever made and has apps specific to sailing that you can just upload to the watch," says Rusty Squire, President of the Heart Rate Watch Company. He adds, "It is also water tight, has a sapphire crystal and renders speed in knots with maps, weather features, a barometric altimeter and 3-D compass."

APPS

There are over 5 sailing apps for Ambit 2 Sapphire and apps for every sport imaginable from pilates to stand up paddle boarding. "There almost is not an outdoor sport it doesn't cover and it has lots of weather apps, too," says Squire.

"There are sailing apps for race competition countdown timers, weather, speed in knots, sail tuning which helps with sail trimming, sailing distance, top speed - you name it and there is an app for it," says Squire. He adds, "If not it is easy to build your own apps using readily known data produced by the watch."

SAILING IS HOT

"Thanks to the USA victory in America's Cup with the Larry Eliason funded Oracle ship, that has more technology than a super computer, sailing is growing in popularity," says Squire. He adds, "This is a great way to take the guesswork out of your data."

MASTER OTHER SPORTS

"When it comes to sports mastery the Suunto Ambit 2 has no peers with nearly 1,500 apps and a growing community of users in Suunto Movescount," says Squire. He adds, "You can use it for over 30 different sports with sports specific apps for each sport".

Get heart rate data and calories burned with the heart rate version of any Suunto Ambit 2 watch also, plus all versions will upload and run the sailing apps.

BUILT TO LAST

The Suunto Ambit 2 Sapphire could take a direct hit from a swinging boom with no damage, its that tough," says Squire. He adds, "In fact, the only thing that can scratch the crystal is a diamond or a silicate carbide cutting blade."

AVAILABILITY

"You can get your Suunto Ambit 2 Sapphire at the Heart Rate Watch Company's website or call us at 866-586-7129 if you have questions," says Squire. He adds, "I grew up in Maine, so I understand sailing and even had friends, like Kevin Mahaney, that crewed in America's Cup in year's gone by."
