I am selling a Cressi Archimede 2 wrist computer.
Consequently to a standard exchange by Cressi (manufacturer defect), I got this new computer in April 2010. It has 10 dives. I already bought a VR3 to replace it, so I don’t really need it. Now the warranty of the Archimede computer has expired, but it is like new.
The battery is about 2 months old. In fact it doesn’t matter because you can easily replace it by yourself. (CR 2032, 3V, around 2$ everywhere). The o’ring for the battery compartment is like new (4 months old).
It works perfectly, and operates in Air, Nitrox, and Gauge modes. It performs air or nitrox calculations for one or two mixes per dive - the first being 21 (Air)-50% O2 and the second 21-99% O2. Very easy to use, by default it uses only one breathing gas: AIR. So don’t worry, it is impossible to do a mystake with parameters.
Very good shape ; watch bracelet is like new, no scratch on the screen. Comes with one screen protection (few little scratches on it, invisible underwater). Sound warning and Backlight work perfectly.
Of course it operates now with feet measurement (even if I used it with metric system before. Both are available, it’s feet now by default).
More pictures or specific questions ? Just send me a private message.
More information ? Here is the technical features that you can read at the Cressi Archimede 2 website (Scuba Diving Computer). The manual is available too at this address.
Technical features
• Bühlmann ZH-L8 algorithm, redesigned by Randy Bohrer
• Tissues: 12 with saturation half-times that range between 5 and 640 minutes
• Salt water calibration
• Range of measurement: 0 - 99.9 m (0-199.9 in Gauge function)
• Maximum surface time: 48 h
• Altitude range: from 0 to 6000 m
• 3V CR 2032 battery which can be replaced by the user as it is easy to find at a low cost.
• Battery lifetime: approximately 2 years at 50 dives/year
• Display is back lit for 5 seconds (by pressing a button)
• Replaceable protective screen for the display
• Possibility of use with air or Nitrox mix (choice between 2 different mixes during the same dive)
• Adjustment of oxygen fraction from 21% to 50% with increments of 1% for the first mix and from 21% to 99% for the second mix
• Partial oxygen pressure adjustment from 1.0 to 1.6 bar, with increments of 0.1 bar for each of the mixes
• Possibility of inserting a personal safety factor, which can be selected on 3 positions.
• Possibility of inserting an alarm upon reaching a pre-established depth.
• Bar graph for nitrogen saturation
• Bar graph for CNS oxygen toxicity
• Indicator of ascent speed at 4 levels
• Audio and visual alarms
• Decompression stops foreseen up to a depth of 30 m
• Safety stop of 3’ at the end of every dive that exceeds a depth of 10 m (not compulsory)
• Date and time incorporated
• Gauge function (only current and maximum depth, dive time (minutes and seconds), ascent speed, time. Functions up to 199.9 m
• Logbook of the last 30 hours of dives or the last 60 dives, with 3 data displays for each dive.
• Memory of the total number of dives, of the hours spent under water and of the maximum depth reached
• Profile of every dive (without interface)
• Transfer of data to PC (with optional interface, not available for Windows Vista).
• Complete scrolling of NDL times to 48 m
• Simulator for dives with air or with enriched mixes, for single or repetitive dives, complete with alarms and every other function that can be set using independent buttons, both during descent and ascent.
• Possibility of performing general reset so that the computer can be used in a diving centre.
• Possibility of changing from metric units to imperial units and vice versa
• Diameter: 62.3 mm
• Thickness: 24.7 mm
Sorry, I don’t have the original packaging or the instructions, because Cressi just sent me back a new computer in a standard box. I can print for you the user manual if you want, or I send it by email (package lighter).
I am selling it for $ 190, price doesn’t include shipping (depending where and UPS or USPS…
I live in Davis, near Sacramento, in California. I can deliver it around if it is close.
Have good dives
