Cheap diving watch?

[ozz]

Hi All,

What would you suggest for a humbled priced watch that has a depth gauge. I don't scuba. So, all I need is a depth gauge and the time of the day. I made a search on the web but I'm totally lost in brands and all the bells and whistles.


Thanks.

swatch makes some that can actually give You the bottom time as well - not sure about the details, though.

they are cool and do all you need to start, 5 second sample interval a bit too slow but OK, manual on internet in PDF, search.

Swatch fun scuba, it gives total depth, dive time in seconds for first 60s and then in mins, automaticaly records dive after 1m to a max of 40m and has 1 dive storage facility, and all this in a fairly unbreakable funky coloured plastic shell for around 30 pounds sterling.
