Hello All,
I'm brand new to diving but have really gotten into it quickly and am contemplating purchasing my first computer. There seems to be a huge amount of manufacturers out there and none of them are very familiar to me, so I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to narrow the search down. I'm living in the Middle East (Dubai) so many of the brands aren't sold locally here prohibiting me from playing with them to figure out what I like. Additionally, my local shop deals in Suunto, Cressi, and Tusa exclusively which makes me lean toward buying those brands for future servicing requirements. So my question is this- are there certain brands that are known to be 'high end' or others that are known as 'budget' products? I was kind of hoping for some sort of 'ranking' of manufacturers to help me narrow the field down a bit. Thanks!
