Hi all, up for sale are my two Heinrichs-Weikamp OSTC Sport dive computers.
There was an old Sport model, but this is the 2019-introduced Sport model, which to me is perhaps the best computer they made: It takes SAFT batteries that last up to 150 hours of dive time (thanks to a low power chip and I think the magnetic buttons save power too, compared to piezo ones). Unheard of battery duration in this type of dive computer. It has very sturdy, user-maintainable and exchangeable magnetic buttons, that give great tactile feedback even with thick gloves.
It does NOT have: GPS, Air-Integration, nor charging. And if you need CCR and Trimix, that'll cost an extra 120 € fee to upgrade (can be done online). It connects to Subsurface on the Mac, and to the "OSTConf" App on the iphone. It does do Nitrox up to 100% O2.
I prefer the OSTC over the Perdix due to the much crisper display, clearer menu logic and more extensive customization. I once posted a mini comparison here, perhaps I should write a more detailed review some day. It's a nice, precise instrument in a gorgeous aluminum housing. HW are also great folks to deal with in any matter.
The first one pictured below in this and the next post is sold, and the second one is in the subsequent posts.
Offered for 400 $ or best offer (Payment via Zelle or PayPal Friends only).
Feel free to PM for any questions.
