I would assume the console-mounted computer would be identical to one sold with a wrist mount, and that they'de be interchangeable, but you never know, so I thought I'd ask. (I'm considering a deal on a used Zoop Novo console, but like having the option of popping it out and making it a more versatile wrist mount unit).
thanks......
 
Suunto Dive Computer Bungee Mount

or maybe this one...

the older Gecko's - predecessor to the Zoop - were slightly larger diameter than the standard size used by many mfr's, I assume the Zoop is also as it looks like the same case is used. So it likely won't fit some of the generic rubber boot/strap accessories sold at Leisurepro and elsewhere

Warm to hot water is your friend while trying to put it back into a new wrist mount.

Thanks, but I was actually more concerned about it not having any band attachments at all, and basically being a plain puck (like an analogue depth gauge you pop into a console).
But if it were adaptable to bungee cords, that would be ideal, since the Suunto straps seem to be absurdly expensive, and not compatible between models (which is just plain stupid and annoying.) Anyway, it's possibly a non-issue, since the seller appears to be an uncommunicative jerk-off. We'll see......:shakehead:
 
The Suunto straps are hard to use on wetsuits since they loosen up underwater and spin around my wrist. I want to go to bungee as well, for more stable wrist position.
 
Thanks for the solid replies guys, but this seller has a few red flags, and but for one brief (and days late) response, is suspiciously uncommunicative, so I'm not following through with this console rig. But if I happen to stumble across another, that DSS mount looks to be perfect! Thanks again !
