This dates me.... Suunto Solution with a Suunto Companion as backup.

Oooh naughty, Paula dates a Solution and a Companion.

Sorry Paula, it was too big a door to not go through.

I have a Solution too but primarily use my Stinger, Beuchat (Uwatec) Pros, or OMS bottom timers depending on what kind of diving i'm doing.

The gadgets do have a way of piling up after awhile don't they?
