Dive watch

The Digital Dive Watch is becoming more popular becase it is less expensive than an analogue dive watch, and are quite compact.It is important that the display dial is large and easy to read.A good dive watch should be easy to operate with gloved hand.

The analogue Dive Watch should have a large bezel that is easy to grip. Diver need to monitor their dive time and with an analogue dive watch looking at the second finger ensures that the diver can tell if the watch is working..

A dive watch should be serviced regularly ie every 1 -2 years to ensure their accuracy.

You need to ensure when you buy your dive watch that the straps are long enough to wrap on your wrist and over a thick wetsuit. Rubber Straps are the most common because they are easy to use and relatively cheap to replace.A wetsuit compresses at depth so the diver must check that the watch strap has not become loose.
