David, i got a deal on a bottom timer some while back, cept it was in metric. i use it on shallow dives for fun. i find no problem in switching between imperial and metric for depth. you just multiply by 3.3 i dont think i would be as flexible with bar/psi, but i think it could be done with some practice. rgds, Al Marvelli David B.
