Been teaching diving since 2008 and from all others I have tried and owned. The D5 is hands down the best computer thus far. It’s not overly complicated like it’s competition and it’s packed with features you should have I believe. Calculating your CNS and PO2 with a compass at any point and much more I gotta day that I am impressed. 3 button user interface makes for simple screen changing and I figured with the software upgrading, it’s a computer for life. For any instructors out there working in difficult conditions, this computer is a must have as it helps to keep you safe and teaches you what’s really going on on your dive. Helps to groom you for better profiles too with the DM5 software after each dive. Thanks Suunto for the support.

I have a bunch of dive computers. I truly love this one. I have about a dozen dives on this computer now but the true test was night diving. Night diving is my most favorite thing and this computer was bright, readable, absolutely perfect for night diving. As a female the size is actually bigger than my wrist, but as a cold water diver it isn't bigger than my wrist + 8mm neoprene. I bought a dive computer, not a wrist watch and I truly love it. This is my 3rd SUUNTO dive computer because I always dive with 2 dive computers and an analog SPG. This computer is truly amazing and the POD tracks tank pressure much better than the old transmitters. This is truly an amazing dive computer.
