I have been using the Tusa IQ-700 and like the bigger text on the display. Take a look at the link below. If all goes well my prescription mask will be done in the next week or so.

Tusa DC Hunter Wrist Dive Computer (IQ-700)

Leisure pro is out of the IQ-700, it has been out of production since 2008. I just went through a mess with them. It's successor is the Nikte Trio/Zeagle N2ition 3

I have the Oceanic Pro Plus 2.1, it has HUGE fonts, it isn't wrist mounted but I have a Nitek Trio for that.
 
I have a Oceanic Datamask. I don't know if you like hoseless AI or not. The Datamask solved the problem of trying to read a gauge for me. I had a Cobra 2 before that and with the Datamask I can see what I want to see when I need to see it. It is not that much more expensive than the Cobra 2 and I really like it. p_computers_datamask2.jpg The display is in the mask and is easy to see in daylight or night.http://www.oceanicww.com/p_computers_iddm.html
 
I would be all over the x1 if they offered a wireless AI--- butttt they dont.. first company to come up with the big 4--- OLED/WirelessAI/Firmware upgradeable/ User battery replaceable---gets my money(and a lot of it i have a feeling lol)..
 
+1 for the Galileo. In light mode it has big fugures and the compass is also big.

Perfect list. The Cobalt is looking pretty good at this point, but would prefer the hoseless ai. If the Uwatec Galileo were OLED they couldn't keep them on the shelf. They already have Trimix out in beta test. But OMG, that's a huge chunk to have on your arm.

...sounds like you're awaiting the upcoming 'wireless' Atomic Cobalt, which I suspect won't be out for another couple of years, but that will give interested parties enough time to save up for one (or more) !

...having seawater, and a battery, 1 millimeter away from my eyes makes me nervous...just sayin'.

Fair enough but then some of put electronic devices with batteries IN our ears! It happens when you get old. If I think back of all the things I have done, this would be one of the smallest risks I have ever taken.:D
