Shearwater - Teric

Diving watches have traditionally been perceived as being less capable or having poorer information display as a result of compromises for size; that's no longer true with the introduction of the Shearwater Teric dive computer.

Other than the obvious difference of the wrist-watch form factor, the Teric includes several features not found on the Perdix models:

• AMOLED display - vivid, bright colors that offers exceptional readability underwater along with a user configurable Big Layout display setting to enable larger fonts that can eliminate the need for "gauge readers".
• Scratch resistant Sapphire Crystal display window - along with an elegant and durable stainless steel bezel with PVD coating in a choice of several colors.
• Four button situation adaptable logic menus - also configure one of the buttons to give you one press access to certain dive or watch tools like compass, stopwatch, deco planner, log tagging, etc.
• Wrist bands - many color options are available from Shearwater and standard 22 mm watch strap size makes many 3rd party options available. DGX also offers a Depth Compensating Slide Release wrist band preferred by many divers wearing heavy exposure suits.
• Wireless rechargeable battery – users have no need to open the body thus reducing chances of flooding. This also eliminates the risk of damage from a depleted primary battery that begins to leak acid.
• Timepiece mode - the Teric can be comfortably worn as a stylish daily timepiece with a selection of watch faces.

The Teric supports only the Bühlmann ZHL-16C decompression algorithm with configurable Gradient Factors. In addition to the Shearwater default ZHL-16C deco algorithm, the Perdix models also support VPM and DCIEM algorithms as extra cost optional alternatives. The Teric is currently the only Shearwater dive computer that supports the Avelo Dive System equipment with the Avelo Mode upgrade as an extra cost option.

Choose either the Shearwater Perdix or the Shearwater Teric and can't go wrong with either choice for an excellent dive computer that will meet your needs no matter your style of diving.
