Simple is as simple does. The Oceanic Veo 1.0 is a solid basic computer designed for air or single gas nitrox mixes up to 50 percent. It displays only essential information during the dive in easy-to-read digits; uses effective bar graphs to present nitrogen loading and ascent rate; and offers useful features like an automatic safety stop countdown timer that ticks off three minutes when you ascend to 15 feet. A single push button is all that's required to navigate the settings and the sequences are intuitive with help from the excellent owner's manual and waterproof prompt card. At this price point, you are giving up bells and whistles--most notably audible alarms, a backlight and the ability to download dive profiles--but these are excellent choices if you want a simple, low-cost computer.

Comments about Oceanic Oceanic VEO 1.0 Air/Nitrox Wrist Dive Computer:
This is the first SCUBA computer I've owned, but It has all the features I need, and more. I dive on air, but if I learn Nitrox later it's ready. I LOVE that it can switch between algorithms. Also, being an older guy, I like that it starts and stops itself without me having to remember (grin; ever forget to start your watch when you dropped off the boat?). The manual is not great, in fact is rather confusing. The on-line class that was packaged with it made everything very clear though. It shipped complete with scratch guard and battery tool, very nice, but you'll want to order the Oceanic battery kit with O-ring and keep it in your spares kit, bagged with the tool!

Very easy to use computer, manual easy to understand, easy to read, reliable, whit dual algorithm.
The problem is that it has not light or sound alarm, so you have to look at it all the time.
It will be a good computer for the money is cost.
