backup computer or analog gauges

[FenterSpooner]

I know I'm new around here but I thought I would ask some of the experts around here their opinion. I finally sold off my old Suunto EON dive computer that I used for the last 16 or so years and figured it's time to upgrade.

I did end up purchasing a Suunto D4 as I like the smaller form factor. I decided against the wireless air integration at this time however I may end up going that way if someone I know really stands behind the reliability especially during advanced dives such as deep, wreck or cave.

Should I just purchase a Suunto analog gauge cluster (depth, pressure and compass) or buy a newer air integrated dive computer such as the Cobra or....?

I'm stuck and would like to hear your thoughts. Maybe I need to sell the D4 and purchase something else altogether.


Thanks!
