Uwatec Smart Pro

[cstreu1026]

I am shopping for my first computer. I had my heart set on an Aeris Atmos 2. That is until I visited my local scubapro dealer. He immediately showed me the Uwatec (he also sells and dives Suunto). It seems to me that this is far and above the most advanced dive computer on the market. I am basing that statment on its microbubble supresion technology and the fact that is uses real time measurements (made every 4 seconds) to determine things like nitrogen loading. The only thing I am having a hard time swallowing is the price. Its $250 more than what I was epecting to pay for the Atmos 2. Does this all really work? Is it worth the extra money?

I use a suunto vytec and my wife uses the smartcom.The smartpro is the wrist version of the smartcom without air integration.I think it is a great computer .The smart series are the top of the line scubapro computers.They are easy to read and user friendly.My personal choice is to choose the smart pro over the aeris.I dont think you will be sorry.The pc logbook for the smart series computers are also great.

Also check into a vytec if your looking for a wrist mount setup with air integration.The suuntos are also some very durable and incredible computers.

Forgot to mention that you can go to www.uwatec.com and download a demo of the smart pro.Its kinda neat and shows you the features.Suunto also has the same download features at their website.

I just ordered the SmartCom. I was using the Uwatec Aladin Pro Nitrox and never had a problem. I happen to really like the Uwatec product. I don't now about Aeris, never used one.
