I'm looking for a watch waterproof tester tool to test dive computer. When I looked up online, there are two similar device but with big price difference. Does anyone know what the difference is and which one should I choose?
This one is $129

And this one is $799

search here on SB for Pressure Pot - folks are making them with water filter housings, hand pump, and a gauge for a whole bunch less.
 
First one is fine. Make sure that your computer fits comfortably inside. They’re only intended for watch style dive computers. They’re both small. I use rubber bands to tie them to the hang-bar. The water level is also critical with these devices.

Principle is simple. Pump up pot to working pressure then dip computer into the water. If you see significant bubbles emitting from the computer, there could be a problem.
