Anyone Tried the New Cressi Leonardo?

[Hatul]

I noticed a guy on who was on my boat for two days in a row in Cozumel about a month ago had one. I asked him about it and he concurred with what I've seen in reviews like this one.

That positive review mentions menu navigation being "a bit crude".

Geez folks, it's a $200 computer with good features and excellent screen .... and one button operating.

Love it or spend more .....

My last computer was a console-mounted Skinny Dipper (circa 1987) although I sold that many years ago.
Just ordered a pair of Cressi Leonardo computers ($180ea). The initial reviews look good for basic sport diving. Anyone have any practical experience?

I have a friend with one. The only issue I've seen is that when diving nitrox sometimes you have to cycle around a second time due to the button's sensitivity. At $180, that is a great price. Where did you find one at that price? (PM please if you do not wish to post).

Just bought one from Diver's Supply In Marietta this weekend. The "user guide" is ok but can't wait until next month to get this thing in the water!

It's my 1st computer and have never used one of any kind.

Will try to post some feedback upon return.

I used the DiveNav training tutorial which was really cool! I was glad to get to see the screens as they would be under water and think it hepled me better understand how this thing works. Since I'm such a noob it also calmed some apprehension.

I'm thinking of purchasing this watch right now from Diver's Supply. Was the online training free with your purchase? If not what was the cost. thank you.

No, but it only cost $4.99 for 12 months.

The Divenav site has some neat other features, but my graphics can't handle them on my current computer.

It does handle the training class though.

Ok kool. Great price. The last time I was on the Divenav site I couldn't find the price.

I'm currently searching for the best price for the watch, before pulling the trigger.

Thank you.

Several dive stores DO provide our tutorials for free when you purchase a dive computer from them.
Ask and you shall receive

If you have an iPhone or a Droid smartphone, download our iDive Computer App and take your new dive computer for a virtual dive
