Wrist Mounted Analog Depth Gauge

[jnunn04]

Hey all,

I have a regulator set that has a pressure gauge only attached - which is fine because I eventually want a wrist mounted computer. But while I save up the $$ for the computer I want, what would you recommend for a wrist mounted analog depth gauge (I can dive tables until then)? I figure it can be used for backup once I get the computer, so it won't go to waste. I have seen them in all range of prices ($50 and up). Is there REALLY any difference in the cheaper ones? Recommendations?

Thanks!

There's an analogue thread going in the vintage forum.

There are a dozen choices, Suunto, Oceanic etc etc etc all similar with a max depth needle
like new or not 10 or 20 years old, cheaper than $50 and they work great.

I still use a suunto solution or something and favor computers that fit in consoles, in a boot
or with just a wrist strap, and complete consoles $50 and Aladdin pro's air, etc etc..
