Here’s the perfect accessory to go along with your HD-video recording dive mask on your next scuba diving trip: the uemis Zurich, an advanced dive computer with a gorgeous OLED display.
This “scuba diver assistant”, an advancement on the traditional scuba dive computer, offers a full color display with a 10,000:1 contrast ratio, a wireless connection to your scuba tanks to report remaining pressure, and straps that are easy to manage even when you’re wearing gloves.
The uemis Zurich diver assistant connects to a PC by USB cable to charge, as well as to synchronize your dive log online with uemis’ web-based profiles.
The Lithium Polymer battery provides about 10 hours of use between charges. Not only can you charge by connecting to your laptop, but an integrated solar panel allows you to charge the unit while sitting on the boat deck between dives!

Do Want!
OH I gotta have it…. I want it now ;-)
Aren’t OLED screens very vulnerable to water?
Yeah you’re right! I wonder if these guys thought of that being as how they are in the DIVE computer biz…?
McLovin, Scott Smith,
I tested it several times, and as Divermath says, you see it very well under the water. OLEDs don’t seem to give problems.
You should just remember to turn it on before to dive (the mine not often, but sometimes, remains turned off when I jump in the water, but I hope this will be corrected in one of the future updates of the firmaware).
Ooo almost had me, if they had a full digital compass with way points I would of bit for sure.
Really nice to see. But I don’t think it is possible to plan your dives (no planner inside).
After three weeks the mine has blocked. No way to connect it at the PC.
I sent it to Uemis Zurich and am still waiting it back…
Not very nice for professionals to wait so much time without a solution.
Great! After three weeks waiting my uemis back, I could use it for four dives again.
It seems that the problem was the boot loader. So I went to my next diving holiday.
This time I would have liked to dive in the Red Sea for a week. The first day was fine. Everything worked, but at the second day I got the same problem as before (this time in the middle of the dive).
That means I could dive only two days, before my uemis SDA turned off and left me without any information. Charge was ok. As before, it was impossible to turn it on again nor connect it to my laptop.
