OH?
Diving Computer?
Sorry.

There is a Uwatec Depth/Timer on my other wrist and tables in my pocket.
Frankly I'd probably come up on my buddy's computer padding the stops depending on how cold/bored I was feeling with a quick look at the tables for a feel as to how deep it wanted me to start stopping and the total time.

Not 'where would I' but 'where do I.' It's my old Suunto Solution and it is in my console next to the spg. My vyper is on the wrist.

I have my Quantum on a wrist slate with my Vyper right next to it. Neither is really a backup as they can both be used for main. However, I'll switch gases on the Quantum so I know when I can surface safely but hang in there on the rich mix decoing on the single mix Vyper until it clears. Gives an unfit fattie like me a nice bit of extra stop padding without having to think too much.

Picked up the Vyper 2nd hand for 120 quid and the Quantum (well this is my 2nd unit now) from the dive show for 149. Bargain buckets galore.
