Cressi Neon Scuba Diving Watch Computer – 4 Programs –

Product Overview

The Cressi Neon Scuba Diving Watch Computer is a versatile, Italian-engineered dive computer designed for both recreational and technical divers. Built by Cressi—a brand with over 75 years of expertise since 1946—this compact device functions as a full-featured dive computer and everyday watch. It supports four distinct operating modes: Air, Nitrox (EAN), Gauge, and Freediving, making it suitable for scuba diving, apnea, snorkeling, and general underwater exploration. With its intuitive two-button navigation and high-contrast 37mm display, the Neon delivers critical dive data clearly and simply. Its 48mm case size ensures a comfortable fit on the wrist while maintaining a sporty yet elegant appearance that transitions seamlessly from dive boat to daily wear.

Key Features

• Four Diving Modes – Switch between Air, Nitrox (up to 99% O2), Gauge, and Freediving programs to match your activity. Ideal for recreational scuba, technical dives, or breath-hold diving.
• Advanced Safety Algorithms – Utilizes the Cressi RGBM Wienke 9-tissue algorithm with customizable safety factors to help reduce decompression risk and support safer ascents.
• Dual Gas Support – Configure multiple gas mixes per dive, including the ability to switch between two different nitrox blends during a single immersion.
• High-Visibility Display & Backlight – Features a 37mm high-contrast screen with an ultra-bright 4000 Mlux backlight—over twice as powerful as comparable dive computers—for clear readability in low-light or deep-water conditions.
• Intuitive Two-Button Navigation – Simplified menu system allows easy access to settings, logs, and real-time data without complex button combinations or confusing interfaces.
• Comprehensive Dive Logging – Stores up to 50 dives per mode or 40 total hours of session data. Compatible with optional Bluetooth interface (sold separately) for wireless download to smartphone apps.
• User-Replaceable Battery – Long-lasting battery life of approximately 4 years (based on 50 dives per year), with easy replacement to minimize downtime.
• Robust Alarms & Alerts – Visual, acoustic, and illuminated warnings for ascent rate, depth limits, deco stops, and low battery ensure critical information is never missed.
• Made in Italy – Designed and manufactured in Italy by Cressi, combining heritage craftsmanship with modern dive technology.

Benefits & Use Cases

The Cressi Neon excels in real-world diving scenarios thanks to its adaptability and reliability. Recreational divers appreciate its straightforward setup and clear data presentation, while technical divers value dual-gas capability and customizable safety settings. Freedivers benefit from dedicated apnea tracking, including dive time, surface intervals, max depth, and session totals. Its compact watch-like design makes it practical for daily wear, eliminating the need to switch between a dive computer and a regular timepiece. The high-intensity backlight ensures legibility during night dives or in murky waters, and the robust alarm system enhances safety during rapid ascents or unexpected depth changes. Whether you’re exploring coral reefs, conducting training dives, or practicing breath-hold techniques, the Neon provides essential metrics without unnecessary complexity.

Important Notes

The Cressi Neon requires an optional Bluetooth interface (sold separately) to sync dive logs with mobile devices. Battery replacement should be performed carefully to maintain water resistance; users are advised to follow manufacturer guidelines or consult a professional if unsure. While the device is built to withstand rigorous underwater use, avoid exposing it to excessive shock or chemicals. Always rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure and store in a dry place. This product is intended for divers who have completed appropriate training and understand decompression theory. Cressi recommends regular inspection of O-rings and seals during battery changes to preserve integrity.
