whats the best dive computer on the market? this can help alot of new divers to invest on a good dive comp. same like me.. hehe thanks!

Is this a recommendation for you, if you're just starting out?

yes.. i really needs some advice on which dive comp. to buy... i dnt want to make same mistakes like some of my gears.. heheh thanks

Okay, well if you are starting out I wouldn't look at "the best" diving computer on the market - as that will set you back thousands of dollars and will have features that you'll probably not use (if ever) for years.

My recommendation would be to go for the Suunto Vyper 2. It's currently got 19% off on Amazon and does everything you'll ever need.

Namely, it's got a nice big screen, so no squinting when you're underwater, an electronic compass and it works with nitrox - which will probably be your next step on the diving ladder.

Highly recommended, it's bargain reduced to $499 from $615. How does that fit in with your price range?

I don't think there is a best bit of equipment, i think it is what you find works best for you. If possible, my advice would be to try different piece of kit out and see which you find best to use, usually you can do this from you dive shop or people within your club. The Suunto vyper and the other suunto computer i think are the most popular but you might find they don't work for you, research the ones you think will work for your type of diving and then go and investigate. Also look around for offers as you never know what you might find.

What type of diving do you do?

thanks.. ill try your advice on researchng. thanks... ill start with suunto dive coms... thanks alot
