What and where is the OC1?

[MichaelS.]

Ok I have gotten hints about a new wrist dive compter from Oceanic called the OC1, I was thinking it would be a DEMA but noone is talking about it? SO whats up?

 

[Doug Krause]

Rumors of a new watch - perhaps with 2 algorithms that the user may choose from?... We're working on a "New products unveiled at DEMA" page on the web site now... soon...

waiting not very patiently!

OK - just for you; don't tell anyone

NEW 2009 Catalog (pdf)

There is one detail that was not completely worked out before we went to press: The OC1 will be the first to feature our Dual Algorithm - a user choice between our time-tested DSAT model and the new Pelagic Z+ (Modified Buhlmann). Independent of the algorithm basis, we have also incorporated a 2:00 deep stop at 1/2 the max depth (for anything deeper than 80').

Thanks! Are those the final colors? (blue/orange) I have been looking to upgrade the proplus2 to a wrist. Perfect timing! The computer looks awesome!

That thing looks pretty awesome. I'm a big fan of Oceanic computers for rec diving.

will there be a software update for the vt3 and atoms that incorporate the new algorithms and deep deco stop features?
