You won’t find any color LED display here, or air integration, or four-gas switching. So what do you get with the Leonardo? As it turns out, exactly what it promises: a simple design aimed at new divers “or those who just want to dive.” Read why the Cressi Leonardo is our Best Buy in this category.

It doesn’t have the longest list of goodies — there’s no air integration or compass — but what it does, it does very well. The dive-mode display is well thought out and easy to see and understand, with data for depth, NDL, dive time and temperature, along with a tissue-loading bar graph and ascent-rate indicator.

Test divers found a lot to like about the OCI — from its data display and presentation to its backlight — and several considered it perhaps the most stylish of the wristwatches. Read why the Oceanic OCI is our Testers’ Choice in it's category.

The Icon’s new dive display is even better than before, with streamlined data presentation and improved use of the Icon’s colors. There’s still one-touch access to a dive-profile graphic, but now it intrudes less on other dive data. Read why the Mares Icon HD is our Testers’ Choice in this category.

Today you can find a computer just as compact and complex — and, fortunately, just as simple — as you’d like. ScubaLab tried out 12 new and redesigned wristwatch, wrist-mount and console models — first with our test divers at Blue Grotto cavern in Williston, Florida, then at the University of Southern California Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber. Read on for our reviews of each model and a summary of test procedures.

Hoist the Rangi Roller, and you’ll notice it’s a little hefty — the heaviest roller carry-on we tested. It’s also packed full of features we like. The rigid sides and back combine with a padded front flap to offer excellent protection for your camera or laptop. Read more on why the Rangi Roller is our Testers’ Choice.

Overall, this bag delivers the kind of ruggedness and clarity of design we’re looking for in a go-anywhere dive bag. It’s our Testers’ Choice in the full-size roller bag category.

A well-designed, well-made jumbo bag with a budget-friendly price tag, the Cressi Cargo is ScubaLab's Best Buy.
