Quality, Function and Style.
The GEO 2.0 has an upgraded look with a stainless steel accent ring and new color combination and now includes Dual Algorithm, Deep Stop option and a redesigned user interface with "Step Back" which allowsforward and backward navigation through menus and settings. Additionally, a second Nitrox mix (both programmable to 100%) is available, as well as Firmware Auto-Update which allows the user to download and install operational improvements or even future new features through the PC Interface (with optionalcable).
A unique combination of quality, function and style, the GEO 2.0 PDC is perfect on its own or as a backup to any dive computer. With Dual Algorithm and optionalconservative factor settings, the GEO 2.0 may be programmed to provide no-deco and deco profiles similar to virtually every computer on the market.

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic GEO 2.0 Wrist Computer:
Overall this is a fine wrist-mount computer. The accessory strap extends it to allow wear over drysuits and thicker wetsuit cuffs/gloves, the dial is easy to read and the freediving mode works well. The instruction book is dense and the access to some data requires remembering complex sequences, but this makes a great primary freediving computer or backup for other diving.

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic GEO 2.0 Wrist Computer:
For a first dive watch, I wanted something as a beginner that I could easily use and grow into. That means as I develop as a diver, I don't want to outgrow my watch. The watch has many features including nitrox and oxygen programming. It is easy to read under the water during the day and night. It also maintains two time zones should you want that. It's not too bulky, but rather slim for a dive watch and comes in a few colors (should you need to get more than one and don't want to confuse yours with your friend's). There is an wrist extension band that is easy to use should you require it over your wetsuit. I loved the LOGbook feature which kept a record of the first 12 dives that I have done so far. I also like the feature which keeps track of my last dive and when I can fly. This watch really takes a lot of the calculations out of diving. As long as you understand the principles of diving, the watch is your safety guide. The manual that comes with the watch may be difficult to understand at first. It would be helpful if the company developed a more informative manual. The online class that comes with the watch should give enough guidance, but that means you have to have internet access close by - not the case where I was diving. I could figure out most of what I needed by playing with the watch before my first dive. (NOTE: This watch may deserve 5 stars. I just haven't utilized all it's features yet to determine that. I am happy with what I have seen so far and look forward to learning more about the Oceanic Dive Computer.)

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic GEO 2.0 Wrist Computer:
I'm relatively new to diving (2 years) and this is my first computer. As a couple of reviewers have commented, there is a learning curve to using the device. Mine came with the online classes as well as a fairly decent manual. If you're willing to take the time to learn all its functionality, it offers a lot of information. The ability to recall so much information really makes filling out your dive log a lot easier!

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic GEO 2.0 Wrist Computer:
I DONT recommend this dive computer. I retuned it after 3 dives, hard to operate do to the lack of a decent operation manual. Nitrox features are hard to setup as well. I rate this product: C-

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic GEO 2.0 Wrist Computer:
It puts me in a half stop which is good and borrowed from RGBM though not an RGBM computer. I like it, I can wear it as a watch during surface time so you don't have to worry about misplacing it.
It was complicated to program at first, but I got the hang of it, now I just have to program my nitrox levels.

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic GEO 2.0 Wrist Computer:
Wonderful computer. Lot of bang for the buck. Great for advanced divers as well as beginners.I have never been fond of air integrated computers. After using a Geo for two years and about 1200 dives, I couldn´t wait to get my hands on this model. Also, a big plus is the ability to program in two gasses...something the old Geo would not do. A great improvement. Oceanic did a great job on this simple yet sophisticated PDC. I doubt you´ll find anything comprable for [$].
