That was introduced at DEMA 2017. Why no traction?

:shrug: there's a few one-star reviews complaining about sticky/failing buttons, and a few 5-star reviews saying it's everything you want from a techreational computer. Gotta wonder about the size of dive computer market is in general, and seac's presence in americanada...

Not sure, maybe Crest has more traction because the owner was founder of Deepblu previously so deeper existing international contacts in the marketplace. Locally I see more Atmos, but maybe that is just they were 1st to market.

Feature set wise the computers are different parts of the spectrum, color screen+gps+compass vs. low cost+mono dot matrix.. neither have AI

Manufacturing wise (hearsay) I think Atmos assembled in China, Crest have their own assembly. Both Taiwanese engineering teams.

Agree with hsinhai. Both dive watch/comp targets the recreational divers market, with atmos having additional "good looking" features. lol

Got my atmos mission early 2019 after bumping into in while i was looking at suunto d5. It was exactly what i was looking for (not too expensive, color screen, "watch" like, good set of features and recognised algorithm). Was so glad that i got it, managed to compare a little with some of my dive mates (deepblu, suunto d4i, crest cr-4).
+ screen color and brightness are awesome for me
+ great screen layout, 2nd to deepblu (they have larger and rectangular screen.. lol)
+ battery lasted well through my trips of at least 3 days (5 to 7 dives) in a single charge, i wear it as a watch when i'm not diving
+ all necessary data are collected and presented
+ less conservative than suunto (dive buddy hit NDL way earlier than the group with default settings)
+ able to sync with apps on both iOS and Android

- my watch's temperature recording tends to be 1'c/2'c warmer compared to others
- Android app is still at the early stage, i wrote to the team couple times and was informed they are rebuilding the app. On the other end, iOS app looks great. The jealousy whenever i watch other online reviewers of the dive comp & their iphones
- OTA updates via bluetooth is unstable, though the wire solves the problem and firmware upgraded within secs or a min

I had not used the GPS locator as my dives were mostly boat dives & guided shore dives.
Found this online for those who are curious - Atmos Mission One Dive Computer -
 
Asides from all else, Malaysian diving looks great!
 
I think that I’m going to get one to play with. Looks intriguing.
 
Appears that it is back in stock at Divers Supply, price increased from $400 to $450 in the meantime
Not in stock just available to order. Looks to be in stock for shipping within the next two weeks.

Too bad on the price increase.
