Edge computer

[louichie]

I think ive heard some people still using this computer;does it still hold interest for a certain group(cave divers etc)?

Haven't used mine in 10 years. It's still in the box ready to go should I decide to. There's nothing wrong with them besides the fact that the are a huge hunk of aluminum and technology is dated.

Hmm I wonder on second thought if they were made of 6351 alloy? Maybe I should check it for cracks.....

No kidding, I paid $700 for mine Keyman in 1990 Retail was close to $1000.

They have the best display of any dive computer.
