Hi,

I'm looking around for a new dive computer after being let down by my quantum (really don't trust it now, so will probably keep it and use it as a bottom timer).

So, I'm looking for a computer for OC Nitrox with gas switching for accelerated deco (so doesn't need to be trimix or CCR at present)

If you're thinking about getting rid of one drop me a line.

Cheers,

Jeff

Cheers,

I'd seen that one...however, don't think I can justify splashing the cash for a colour VR3! monochrome will do.

Don't think you would save a lot by going mono, I was considering selling mine earlier in the year and was going to put it up for £500 (mono C3)

I reckon I'll save about £200-250 ;-) Just been offered one from a guy I know in my club.

Although yours is OC Nitrox\Trimix enabled isn't it? I only need Nitrox

If cost is an issue what about a Suunto Vytec 3 gases, bullet proof

OK for not too deep or not too much deco.

Hi Nick,

Yeah I thought about the Vytec. But when I read the Suunto blurb, it looked like it was 3 Nitrox gases...I wanted the option of eventually going to trimix and not having to buy another pooter at the same time.

Anyway I'll have a look at the VR3 I've been offered and see if its worth it.

Cheers,

Jeff
