Afternoon divers:
I am interested in purchasing a dive computer. The two companies that I have narrowed it down to are listed in the subject box. I would like to know what your take is on their products.
According to the research that I have done: Oceanic, although appear to be made with lower quality material, have more capabilities than those from Suunto. I am interested in an air integrated primary with a theoretical as a backup.
Cost between the two brands varies quite a bit and the algorithms used vary as well. Oceanic having their dual-algorithm feature and Suunto playing it safe and being pretty conservative. Granted Oceanic has a conservative and liberal algorithm built in.
Experience with these brands is appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
nv
