Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Xtender Wrist Dive Computer:

I honestly can't say enough good things about this dive computer. It's small enough that I use it as my everyday watch. On dives, it is reliable and easy to read.
I bought mine as a backup computer to my console mounted VEO180. It has performed flawlessly. The two are slighly off on time remaining on a dive, but work well together on safety stops and decompression.
The battery is user replaceable. It's easy to swap them and go, and all data will be there when it powers up. After I replaced my battery for the first time I did a wreck dive on the JMP Maru in Guam. The keel of the JMP sits at 160 feet. This watch will calculate time remaining on your dive down to 160 feet ( I don't recommend diving that deep unless you are diving with tri-mix ).
It also has some handy functions such as surface interval timing and dive planning.
The only complaints I've heard about this watch is that the manual for it is very technical and complicated. I read technical manuals as part of my job so to me the manual seemed user friendly.
Overall I can't recommend this watch enough.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Xtender Wrist Dive Computer:

I have completed approximately 75 dives using this computer as a backup to my Oceanic Veo180.
It's reliable, easy to read, and has a conservative algorithm.
The ascent alarm is a great function, as is the built in dive planner which uses your past dive ( assuming you're doing multiple dives ) to layout your max bottom time.
I have read reviews that state how difficult the instruction manual is to decipher. I don't agree with that at all. I read through the manual once and have never had an issue with it. For all of the bells and whistles of this computer, you want an indepth manual.
Another great feature is the diver replaceable battery. I've replaced my battery and proceeded to go to 130 feet with absolutely no issues. A great dive computer and a great watch.

Comments about Scubapro Scubapro Xtender Wrist Dive Computer:

This is very easy to operate. I have around 80 dives on mine and it still looks like new. Get the protective sticker (sold for many other computers) so it protects the crystal. It is awsome.

These are hard to find but if you can buy one I would recommend it hands down over the other wrist dive computers/watches. I love mine, the lense protectors from the Oceanic Atom's work perfect for protecting the lense
