This is a joke, right? Nice features, yes, when they work correctly. = The Nemesis IIA is known for extremely poor performance and problems. Both = with the transducer as well as the wrist unit.... I've got a Commander = Nitrox so I can speak from experience. It's the most expensive bottom timer I = have ever owned.... I've sent it back to Cochran 3 times in the past 3-4 years.... Unit might work well on recreational dives but for a = technical dive it's extremely unreliable. Unit seems to work fairly well on the = first dive but goes bonkers on the second.... On the first dive I typically = get out of the water a little quicker than the Cochran. On the second dive = (if it doesn't gauge out) I'll get about with about an hour of deco still showing on the Cochran. From experience, stay away from the Nemesis and Commander. Can't speak about their other products but if the past is any indication of the = future, I'd stay away from them too.....

I think the best computer on the market is the Cochran line of computers.
