What customers say about "Key Specs"

Cressi Giotto Wrist Computer

It's a well-constructed computer that is good for entry level divers, and supports multiple gas mixtures.
I love this watch. It has made diving so much more fun and stress free. If you are looking for diving equipment to invest in, I definitely recommend this watch.
And I will say it performed admirably. I took it off the coast of Columbia and dove to approximately 75 ft and it handled perfectly.
Also the band on this computer is large. I'm a big guy and putting it around my wrist has a lot of overlap. No problems just information.
The wrist computer is just the right size ... Easy to read and with a good wrist band.

Suunto Vyper Wrist Computer

This computer is easy to use, durable and it lasts for a long time with no problems at all. I love it!
No issues after using them in the Socorro Islands. we carry these on the wrist while our backups are in consoles.
Just started using this computer, fantastic time piece and dive computer. Easy to use, great log features and it has such an easy to read face.
Excellent computer with all the features you'd need. The computer easily pairs with the software for planning. I have yet to connect the transmitter but all the other features are fantastic
Fantastic product. Clear display. Love the built in electronic compass

What customers say about "Features"

Cressi Giotto Wrist Computer

After getting Nitrox certified, I decided it was time to get a multi-gas computer and after some research and talking to the experts at the local dive shop, chose the Giotto.
The interface is fairly intuitive and the three button controls make it easy to navigate.
It lets you know how many minutes you need for your rest stop based on the depth of your dive, the water temperature, if you are ascending or descending too rapidly, etc.
After a dive it displays the surface interval and saturation time, as well as a no-fly indicator.
. They worked great! I loved the large display. Very user friendly.

Suunto Vyper Wrist Computer

I used it on the air-only setting, and used the max depth and timed dive alarms, both of which worked quite well.
Very easy to use, conservative but nice to have a notification for when you can fly after diving.
Easily switches between air and nitrox. The display is large and easy to read compared to smaller dive watches and fits easily on a wet suite or bare wrist, with an adjustable strap.
Another nice feature is the ability to set my personal preference as far as risk level- conservative or not.
Perfect for recreational scuba diving. It has more features than i needed such as nitrox diving.
