please keep in mind I'm a novice when asking this question...we just did our AOW cert class this past weekend and our dive instructor told me that I should invest in a dive watch (not a dive computer). Something that tells time underwater. Period. So, I did a search on here and came up with a 'Dive Watch' thread where everyone was rec'd their favorite dive watch. When I googled the watch that most people seemed to love - citizen hyper aqualand' - I learned it's about $360! And when I read the description of what it does, it seems like a dive computer.
Are people using the words 'dive watch' and 'dive computer' interchangably?
I just need a dive watch for our trip to Australia. They are providing computers on the boat and we are not to the point of buying our own computer.
Any rec'ds on a watch. I am a female and I do not own a watch for out door activities like rock climbing, white water rafting etc. My point is I'd like something a little more stylish than a $15 watch from Walmart, but $360 is far too much. Maybe a nice watch around $100?
To clarify...is the citizen hyper aqualand a 'dive computer' or would you wear this and a dive computer. Sorry, I'm sure that is a RIDICULOUS question to seasoned divers.
Thanks!
