Suunto Dive Watches
If your are or you have a budding Jacques Cousteau in your life, a Suunto Dive Watch would make a truly outstanding gift.
Suunto has designed the first all-in-one dive computer and watch. This is a boon for divers as when diving, a diver must monitor several gauges nearly constantly to keep up with depth, time, tank pressure, decompression status and direction to name just a few.
The Suunto D9 combines all dive-critical information in one instrument that is conveniently mounted on your wrist. Instead of monitoring a multitude of gauges, you can concentrate on what is important - having a great dive.
Also, the Suunto D9 is the world's first dive computer to incorporate a digital compass showing the general direction of your dive as well as your exact bearings presented through a numerical display. Your checkpoints can be stored in Suunto D9's memory for later analysis. Of course, this watch doesn't only work great underwater, the compass and most other features not directly related to diving can can be used on land as well.
Tank pressure and air comsumption are vital knowledge to have when diving. By utilizing Suunto D9's optional wireless transmitter, the diver can also monitor tank pressure and air consumption data right from their wrist.
The remaining tank pressure is displayed both numerically and graphically, and an estimation of the remaining air-time is given throughout the dive. This allows the diver to monitor the remaining air supply at the same time as he monitors depth and time. Real time air consumption is also stored in the memory.
If you're a tri-mix diver, the Suunto D9 can be used with up to three different gas mixes containing 21-100% oxygen, allowing gas switching during the dive. Decompression calculations are based on the Suunto Deep Stop RGBM model, which provides iterative deep stops as an alternative to traditional safety stops. For those intending to go really deep, the maximum depth display is set at 200m [660ft].
Just when you thought this watch had everything, here's the kitchen sink: in addition to basic dive data, the built-in dive logbook provides a graphical dive profile where real time water temperature and tank pressure data can be analyzed on the wristop computer. The sampling rate can be set to as low as 1s. Allowing you to keep a very accurate log of your dives.
Not only is this a fully functional diving watch/computer. This
Suunto D9 is a great looking watch as well that will take you from the boardroom to the underwater reefs you love to explore.
