For those who use reading glasses, if you use 2x for example, is the perdix readable with using prescription lenses or inserts?
 
Yes...I use 2.0-2.5 and even 2.75 and I can read my Perdix just fine. I was quite surprised. I bought a few reading lens insert masks that really don't fit me all that great (from DGX who sells them reasonably) and finally said I am going to try to dive with straight lens and it worked great. I am 60 and had Lasik 20 years ago...Been wearing readers for last 15 years

Thank you, almost 50, getting cataract surgery which will still require readers, so this probably seals the deal. Seems to check the boxes.
 
I got the Perdix AI and love it...I had trouble seeing the pressure gauge by itself so I splurged on the AI version

I am going to go that route as well. Seems it is easier to read than a spg ?
 
It is for me. much easier

Depends on the SPG I bought the Cressi Digi 2 and it is very easy to read. Works well along with my Perdix.
