LEONARDO

This thing just works! It is one of only two computers I would recommend without reservation to occasional recreational divers like myself who dive only a few dozen times a year. It has a clear, easy to read display that tells you everything you need to know on one screen when you are diving. It allows you dive with Nitrox. The battery is easy to replace, and lasts a good while. The single button interface is actually very easy to use once you get the hang of it. Is there anything wrong with it? I wish the safety stop countdown included seconds to, not just minutes The backlight isn't the greatest, but I've never actually had trouble reading the screen on any dive. It also does not sync wirelessly to your phone or computer by itself. But at this price point, I honestly do not think you can find a better device. The Leonardo has become the backup computer to my Shearwater Peregrine over the years (the only other computer I would personally recommend without hesitation). The Leonardo matches the far more expensive and capable Shearwater device for accuracy and safety on all my dives. Given how stupidly difficult, expensive, and confusing dive watches can be, I wish someone had told me to just buy this watch when I started diving well over a decade ago! If you are a beginning recreational diver and don't want to spend a whole lot of money on a computer, get this one. If you can spend a little more, spring for a Shearwater.

Reliable, clear screen and easy to navigate. No problems using on multiple dives and the fast ascension warning beeps are clear. Only issue is that it's *large* and occasionally spins around my S/M wrist

Fantastic computer and extremely easy to use. I decided to buy a computer since have started diving frequently and found that computer aren't that easy to handle, at least for me that I am Advance Open Water Padi and didn't dive with gases yet. This computer is pretty easy to use, with its single button interface. I set it up very fast, I could choose between metters or feet, celsius or farenheit, air or nitrox, safety factor (I used the default since I am a 'healthy' person) and other parameters that I never used. Since it has 1 single button, the way to use it is short press and long press, where short press is to change the menu and long press is to edit something. Once I got into de water, it was pretty easy to read (I have 1 point astigmatism in both eyes), with long press I turned the light on for a couple of seconds. Also the best features imho, are the heads up when I go up faster than I should do... it beeps and complains, in the safety stop it indicates easily the amount of remaining minutes. I feel much more confortable diving with it. I have just come from a dive into the Blue Hole in Belize where we dove at 40m depth (131ft) and it was my first dive so deep and using this computer made me feel more secure. The standard view into the water is the water temperature, max depth, current depth and current dive time. If you want to take a look you could check my fedepia84 youtube account videos in Belize (the name is "Scuba Diving in Esmeralda spot, Ambergris Caye, Belize"). Or you can check this video at the minute 5:30 where I test going up quickly to test the alarm heads up: [...] (Note: if you above this note the "[...]" text is because Amazon removed the link, so you will need to search the name above or check my comment below on this review) The only little thing I think it might be a cons, is that the watchband is sort of long and is little annoying (check the screenshot and video) and in one moment I didn't notice that the watchband grabber got released... nothing happens but I could have lost it. Next time I'll make sure to grab it tightly.

Great dive computer for the money. It is very basic but has everything you need. The only weakpoint that is the ascent meter could have more definition. It is a little difficult to distinguish if ascent is too fast or at appropriate rate.

Excelente producto.

I found the one button design difficult to use. The date on my computer is set to the wrong year, and I don’t know how to fix it. The included instructions are sketchy, the online directions do not address this problem. Even YouTube doesn’t help. I would not buy this computer again.

This is a basic dive computer that works. Large display, easy to read, and durable. Took a few minutes to fully program including nitrox settings. Purchased 3 of these for backup computers for me and my family. After 35+ dives it was quickly becoming my primary computer over my Suunto D9, because it was reading nearly exactly the same but easier to see. It is not air integrated and the back light takes a little practice but I don't use those features so didn't bother me at all. Reading the screen at night with my dive light was easy. This is a great computer at a great price. It is basic, easy to read, easy to program, easy to understand, you can turn off the beeps, you can change the battery yourself, and works great as a primary or backup computer. A lot easier to program and change between nitrox and air. Does what it should and nothing extra, no gimmicks. I removed the band on each computer and attached it to a carabiner so it lives full time on my bcd. Would be helpful if the manufacturer created this as an optional accessory. You are probably not going to wear it daily as a watch because it's too big. Color is mostly just on the band. Not air integrated, which I like because that's a waste of money. It displays average depth for the dive, which is silly. Algorithm is good, matched my suunto, and programmable to adjust level of conservation preferences as well as diving at elevation. Automatically turns on when you jump into the water. Great price. Buy it

I bought this about a year ago so I've had some time to play around with it as a casual dive computer for rec trips. I've used a bunch of borrowed computers Suunto etc and I'm transitioning to the Shearwater likely in the next month. There's things that are definitely good/bad about this dive computer depending on your level of experience. Pros Easy to use, large button easy to read. The large button is easy to use and the display is not hard to read. The beeping is loud and clear underwater. The manual is adequate and it has all the baseline things you need as a beginner recreational diver without over complicating it. Super easy to look up info for your dive log. Cons Not the ideal computer for divers who plan to dive more than once every couple of years. Their no decomposition limits are laughably conservative. I think I was doing a rec dive down in Cozumel last year and the alarm went off at 30 something minutes at 60 ft and then almost immediately on my follow up 30 ft dive. It was so annoying I ended up borrowing a computer for the rest of the week. Also that button. God help you if you overshoot because you have to start at the beginning.

El diseño es muy chulo y el color también. Me costo encontrarlo al ser una edición especial. Fácil de usar. Lo negativo que es para mi gusto demasiado grande

Too complicated to set I just wanted a big watch but this watch is for divers so I made the wrong choice even the set up to just see time is so complicated I am not sure what I I am going to do with the watch I can even set the time it is really complicated Regret regret regret

Ottimo prodotto

思った以上にデカく、ダイビング以外で時計で使う事は不可能です。 まだ1度も使っておりませんが、日本語の説明書がなく、理解をするのに少し時間がかかりました。2010年1月にグアムで初めて使ってみます。 画像は通常のG-SHOCKと比較して写してみました。

Cressi no defrauda. Gran parte de mi equipo de buceo es Cressi y se nota la calidad en todo lo que hacen, así que uno de los motivos por los que me fijé en este ordenador es porque sabía que podía confiar en él. Hace menos de un año que tengo la certificación, así que no quería hacer un gran desembolso en algo muy complejo. Llevo sólo 8 inmersiones con él, y muy contento por el momento, cubre todas mis necesidades en cuanto a información sobre la inmersión. Se siente robusto y resistente, y una vez aprendes los tres modos de usar el único botón que tiene (pulsación simple para avanzar entre opciones de menú e incrementar/cambiar valores, pulsación semi-larga para entrar a ver/editar opciones, y pulsación prolongada para volver a la pantalla previa) su manejo es sencillo e intuitivo. Permite ver todos los parámetros de la inmersión en curso en la pantalla, planear inmersiones (tiempo y profundidad), ver el registro de las inmersiones hechas y (importante) seleccionar diferentes configuraciones de gases (imprescindible en caso de que quieras bucear con Nitrox). Se ve perfectamente bajo el agua, por el momento nunca he necesitado activar la luz que trae y muestro en el vídeo. El botón se puede pulsar sin esfuerzo bajo el agua, y la correa es lo suficientemente larga como para poner el ordenador sobre el brazo con el neopreno. Aún no lo he necesitado, pero la pila puede ser cambiada por uno mismo sin dificultad. Por calidad/prestaciones/precio, me parece de las mejores opciones como primer ordenador de buceo
