I've been diving for 35 years. Only the last 5 with a computer. I am just a sport diver. I also was taught to ascend using the bubbles as reference. There was nothing else to use when I started as most of us dived for several years before we could afford dive watches (very expensive in the 70's).
Slower than the small bubbles always worked for me. We did not do safety deco stops at 3-6m. Only deco when required by the tables. I have never been (knowingly) bent, or had any other diving related health issues..
So, from a sample of 1, it is quite feasible to dive safely with limited equipment. You just have to be careful how you go about it.
