The Prowler sits squarely the middle in that a lot of info IWC Aquatimer IW371918 Mens Watch is logged, but it doesn't have the USB inte***ce or on-screen plots of things like depth vs time. Which you prefer probably depends on how you dive, and how often. And, as previously mentioned, the Immersion Prowler is primarily recommended for free diving.The dive mode is triggered automatically by two sensors hidden under the left rubber bumper. There's a conductive water sensor, and the Intersema pressure sensor. Once the water sensor activates, the watch waits for 1.15atm of pressure, and then starts dive mode. Very cool!So how is it to wear on dry land? I found it to be pretty comfortable with one minor caveat: it's a large watch, about 50mm at the widest point, but low-to-medium weight (120g) due to the use of rubber on the strap. The contoured strap is comfortable and keeps the watch in place on the wrist without shifting around, and the general look is that of a sports/fitness/outdoors IWC Aquatimer IW371918 Mens Watch , not too different from a Pathfinder or perhaps a G-shock.
Three alarms.Stopwatch.Multi-mode countdown timer.Simultaneous display of H/M/S as well as day, date, and year. As Christian never tires of preaching, this is surprisingly useful.Dive mode is actually two modes: free dive, or deep/scuba. In free dive mode (which the watch is primarily recommended for), the Prowler displays the su***ce interval, one of the variables in avoiding the Taravana bends; in scuba mode, it displays dive start time instead. In either mode, it keeps (and logs!):Total dive time.Maximum depth.Actual depth.Minimum temperature.Date and time of the dive.Submerged descent speed.There's a wide spectrum of dive computers/IWC Aquatimer IW371918 Mens Watch , ranging from minimal to full-blown computers with bitmapped displays and USB (like the Suunto D9).
