Hey, I've been looking all over eBay and searching the forums here and I can't find the cheap watches you all talk about. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks
I've been looking for the Ocaris dive-time and the similar ones to that. My budget is about $100 for now
 

Don't....

Bought one of ebay, had it a few weeks and it never worked properly..... would only register a few out of 20-30 dives and sometimes would not register surface interval if I didnt pull the watch completely out of the water.... which would then report dives of over 9minutes...

In fact no surface interval always had me guessing how safe I was.

I returned it to the seller, and I think its back up for sale...

I realised there is no such thing as a cheap dive computer, espcially from a safety point of view....

I bought a brand new suunto d4 from subprof for €330. Well outta my price limit, but now I can enjoy the dives without worrying if my computer is telling what I need to know.
 
I agree with Bob, don't buy 'shit'.

A good mask, rubber weightbelt, dive buddy and training is much more important and fun.
