My eye sight is get worst each day. And I do not have a lot of tech computers to see in person where I live. Would like to know your opinion before getting one from online order? Thanks.
 
Wait a month and order the Liquivision Xeo. It has the hugest numbers I've seen.

All the best, James
 
Under water UEMIS Zurich has a nice large numbers, however above water not so much.
 
I'd approach it from the other direction and just put a gauge reader lens in your mask. They cost something like $25/pair and then you can read any computer.
 
HeO3 Trimix Dive Computer
Dive Rite Express has this compter at a good price. Numbers are fairly large if you need trimix.
 
Up until recently, I would have said the Liquivision X1, with the yellow-on-black numbers and the adjustable font. But with the colors, I think the Xeo is going to be even easier to read.
 
Liquivision computers offer amazing readability. My friend has an X1 and it's constant OLED display can be read from across a silted out engine room in a dark wreck...

I assume the Xeo will offer a comparable, or better, display.
 
I think multi colour OLED screens are prettier, but I don't think they're any more readable than mono colour OLED screens.
 
I don't know -- having had an X1 and a Xen on my wrist, I think being able to make things different colors can aid in instant identification of what each number in the display means. At least, I found it so. Readability is not just about seeing what the number is.
