Cressi Newton

I have used the Cressi Leonardo Computer for at least 4 years and I really love it. The Newton software is the same and when I wanted to upgrade my dive computer, the choice was easy. So, I bought the Cressi Newton, and this is my review to describe this dive watch computer based on my daily use as a watch and some scuba diving that I did in the last few months (1 was a night dive).This is my positive experience with the Newton:• Newton is elegant and has a beautiful design around my wrist. Many people liked the computer and gave me compliments.• The watch is lightweight and it does not bother me to wear it every day. The metal components are in titanium, so besides being really light, there was no issue in salt water.• The display is easy to read, numbers are big and in the right place during my dives; same experience I had with the Leonardo computer.• Good watch functionality -- you can set the alarm clock, dual time function.• Alarm and light are loud and bright. No issues here.On the negative side, there is no free-diving function on the Newton, but I do not free-dive…yet, so I would look for a specific free-dive watch in that case; so this is not really a negative aspect. Looking online, I have also noticed that there is not one product considered being perfect for divers and free-divers, so I chose the Newton and I am very happy with it.Fast shipping and great service, 5 stars. I would definitely recommend this dive watch.

Very nice looking watch that you can wear everyday, the display is easy to read and comes with a magnifying attachment for diving. Very happy with this purchase. The functions are quite easy to figure out and set up. I previously wrote a bit of a negative review about the lack of service or tech support. I had a concern that a setting wasn't working properly, and I was looking for video's or reviews on this watch and there were none, I had also had gone to the Cressi web site and found nothing in the way of videos on how this watch functions. But I finally sent Cressi an Email which is your only option. And they responded within a day with a name and contact number of a Cressi Representative, I phoned and left a message saying I would try again tomorrow, and within an hour they returned my call. So in retrospect I made a mistake their service and support it is very good, I should have trusted the Cressi name, only wish they would do more with the how to use video's !

Arrived with a dead battery. Ordered this from 2 different vendors and both times the computer arrived with dead batteries. Disappointing!

It was a gift for my nephew in Bequia. And he loves the watch. He is a diver.

Pretty disappointing it comes with a dead battery for such a high end watch. Can’t even test the watch to see if it works. Had to order a battery. The grey Cressi box it comes in was dirty and beat up. Hopefully the watch works great for my dives because they’re not winning anyone over with the presentation.

I love it!!

This watch looks very nice except that the text on the bezel appears to be double printed/blurry. If this was a $20 watch I wouldn't care but for $500 I expect higher quality. I have not even had the chance to use this under water as I don't want to hurt my chances of getting it replaced.

I liked the size of the computer face, it was easy to read. I'm looking forward to diving with it

Great bit of kit.The screen is a little small for me, but that's my fault as I'm getting older.I ended up buying a mask with a pair of 'reader' inserts to solve the problem,Easy to operate and small enough to wear as a watch when travelling to save having to bring watch and computer.

bought in january dived this week first time. Decompression time is abnormal tells me to do a safety stop 40 minutes at 5 meters depth slarm goes off. Ruined my diving time and risked serious injuries due to confussion.

Arrived quickly, excellent watch,partner loves it.

Computer sub molto bello, sia dal punto di vista della portabilità (si può indossare tranquillamente durante tutto il giorno), sia dal punto di vista delle funzioni dive.Supporta aria/nitrox e supporta anche un (solo) eventuale cambio miscela durante l'immersione. Facile da usare, ottima leggibilità e, come dicevo, indossabile 24h.Non ha modalità apnea, può eventualmente essere impostato in modalità profondimetro/timer.Lo consiglio.

Dieser Tauchcomputer von Cressi macht nicht nur im Wasser eine schöne Figur, sondern auch an Land als Uhr.Ich habe mir extra den Cressi Newton bestellt, weil ich sowohl an Land eine Armbanduhr wollte, also auch Unterwasser einen brauchbaren Tauchcomputer.Zur Uhr:Der Cressi Newton ist technisch-bedingt relativ dick. Allerdings noch in einem, für mich, akzeptablen Rahmen, da ich doch etwas kräfitger gebaut bin. Jemand mit dünnen (Unter-)Armen könnte schon Probleme haben, den Newton ordentlich als Uhr tragen zu können.Etwas schade: wenn man den Newton ausschaltet hört auch die Uhr auf mitzulaufen, so dass man diese dann jedesmal neu einstellen muss - was allerdings auch recht flott erledigt ist!Zum Tauchcomputer:Wichtig ist eigentlich der Tauchcomputer. Unterwasser werden einem alle wichtigen Infos angezeigt. Schön wäre es, wenn die vertikale Geschwindigkeit auch in m/s angezeigt werden würde.Der Newton zeigt zwar an, mit welcher vertikalen Geschwindigkeit man unterwegs ist, allerdings nur in Abstufungen von 3 Punkten - was mir, gerade als Anfänger, doch etwas wenig ist.Der Signalton (Piepen) bei Alarmen könnte meiner Meinung nach etwas lauter sein.Schön ist auch die Software zum Auswerten des Newton (wenn man denn das PC-Link Interface hat). Hier kann man das Tauchprofil sehr schön sehen, und, sollte es zu Alarmen gekommen sein, auch diese einsehen, so dass man diese auch in der Nachbesprechung aufgreifen kann.Etwas unschön finde ich auch, dass man zum Auslesen der Tauchdaten ein Extra-Gerät kaufen muss (das auch nicht ganz billig ist)! In der heutigen Zeit von Smart-Geräten erwarte ich bei einem Tauchcomputer dieser Kategorie eigentlich schon fast eine Datenübertragung per Bluetooth - das geht heutzutage sogar stromsparend und benötigt auch nicht viel Platz.Insgesamt ein sehr schönes Produkt. Den Stern Abzug gibt es im Grunde nur wegen des etwas leisen Signaltons sowie der Uhr-Funktionalität im ausgeschalteten Zustand.Bei Letzterem kann man natürlich diskutieren, ob das nicht ein Feature ist - mich stört es dann doch mehr als dass ich es nützlich finden würde.
