Oceanic OC1 Pioneer Limited Edition Scuba Dive Computer Means it is Christmas in July

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

Well that’s what it feels like since Oceanic introduced the sweetest present that a scuba diver could wish for.  I am talking about the Oceanic OC1 Pioneer Limited Edition Dive Computer.  With all the limited edition and limited edition that is going on in the world today, I was skeptical.  But I was wrong.

I know that Oceanic reputation for quality products and their habit of defying convention got them where they are today which is truly a good place to be.  I read all the features of the OC1 Pioneer Limited Edition and realized that everything that I wanted in a  dive computer was right there plus a few new features that I didn’t realize I wanted until I read about them.

All right you can call me a bit of an egoist as I do like that each one is individually numbered and that there are only 1,000 available worldwide but that is really minor compared to how it functions.  There are 10 menus with 40 features that you can set.  Five operating modes.  It can be used for up to 3 nitrox mixes and as far as safety features there are 35 warnings and alarms built in.  The electronic compass sweetens the features list even more. Read more on the features and benefits of the Oceanic OC1 Pioneer Limited Edition Dive Computer.

You would think that all of these features would make the Oceanic OC1 Pioneer Limited Edition a gaudy clunky thing to wear on your wrist but you would be wrong.  The housing and band are ion plated full titanium (which allows a sleek low profile design) and the lens is diamond coated for the ultimate in durability.

To Oceanic I give, yet again, kudos for daring to take diving to the next level.
