Hi,
I guess it's worth the money. But it also depends what you are using it for / what you expect from it. For instance it does not have depth alarms, which are good for training and deep dives and don't require to check the depth during a dive.

Usually I would recommend to visit apnea.cz since there you can easily see and compare 'all' computers suitable for freediving. Unfortunately the website is down at the moment.

In general, you have two options. You can either spend 90 bucks on the Snorkeling Master or around 300 on a much more advanced computer. I use the Pyle watch for some time and in my opinion its OK. However, it underestimates the depth by ~0.5m
