all depends on the speed of the ascent & the nitrogen loaded.
if your alladin shows deco.. then you had deco to do.
the suunto is a 3 minute inbuilt safety net.

if it happened to me, i would have descended right away & multipiled the deco by 1/2. so 3 minutes would have been 4 1/2 minutes.
got out the water & went on o2.
after then i would have monitored myself until i thought i was clear.

sounds like you were lucky, perhaps.
your level of fitness may have saved you from a noticable bend.
