So I just got my new to me Perdix computer. What wrist straps do you guys prefer? Bungee or Elastic? The Shearwater Peregrine has an easy watch style strap. With the Perdix I don't seem to find the elastic straps all that easy to use....so any recommendations? Thanks!
 
Bungee. Cheap, simple, easy to adjust. 4mm i believe.

MUST ensure that a broken strap doesn’t break the other, I.e. it drops off.

Edit: You can use a single length of bungee to create the two bungee loops, but make sure there's a knot on both sides so that a break anywhere will still leave one loop intact.

And Perdix's are brilliant - you won't regret it.

You could look for a screen protector for it. Computers do get scratched and a screen protector should do it's job.
 
I agree that 1/8th inch bungie is the way to go. I dive both dry suit and wet suit (If I can ever travel to warm water again) so I size it for the bigger dry suit situation. When I can dive in a wet suit I just tug the bungie out a few inches and tie off an extra knot to take up the slack.
 
I had been using the elastic straps that come with the Perdix when I just got tired of them. You can color coordinate if you like. I got the bungee I use off Amazon. Said marine grade in the description. I’ve got purple. :D
 
I prefer the original straps that came with it.
 
I tried to use the elastic ones with the clip but found them very awkward to try to tighten
