How to Set an Alarm on a Vector Watch

Suunto's Vector watch is water-resistant to 100 feet and has a digital liquid crystal display with a backlight that shows the time when it's dark. There is a barometer trend indicator, and you can display time in a 24-hour or 12-hour format. The calendar is preprogrammed to display up to the year 2089, and there is a stopwatch and countdown timer for timing events. You can also set up to three alarms on the watch.
