Shearwater ResearchTeric Color Wrist Dive Computer

I spent the better part of a day reading the entire operators manual and going through familiarization with the hundreds of features on this dive watch. The customization options are practically endless but the watch is still relatively easy to set up and simple to use during dives. Display visibility underwater is second to none but they do warn of screen burn in with AMOLED displays so I would recommend keeping settings away from always on modes for anything other than a dive. Definitely pricey but if taken care of, I can see this being the last dive watch I will ever need! If you pair it with a SWFT transmitter, I recommend a small extension HP hose off your reg to help keep connection between devices. I have six dives so far with this set up and I never lost connection once. If you do decide to add one, you'll have to pick up a HP air spool to connect them as Shearwater does not include one with their transmitters. HOG and XS scuba both have cheap air spool options on Amazon that work with it. If you splurge on one piece of dive kit, I would make it this Teric. I don't regret this buy!

I used my Oceanic VTX since 2016 [OEM replacement for an early-death of a Compumask]... replacing the CR2 battery more times than I can remember.... putting up with the dim screen, slow transfer (over USB), transmitter dropouts, clunky physical design, unpleasant buttons, and hard-to-navigate menus... each time I thought about upgrading, I talked myself out of it... I finally decided to take the plunge and get the Teric in bronze. I absolutely love it! All of my complaints from the VTX have been replaced with praise of the Teric. It's rechargeable on Qi chargers or the included dock, the screen is super bright, the Bluetooth transfer is fast enough (and very easy), it "sees" the transmitter from a distance and doesn't drop connection, it's so much more compact, the buttons feel good, the menus are intuitive... it's freaking awesome, and I wish I'd bought it a 100 dives ago!

I will only buy and dive Shearwater made dive computers at this point. So much happier using a Teric over all of my old Suunto's. Recently my wife's Suunto locked her out for 48 hours due to battery running out on the hang line. Shearwater won't do that to you.Back to the Teric: it's so easy for my old eyes to read at depth and it's very easy to use as you can set the color and font size you want. I feel the Teric is the easiest on the eyes of all current dive computers on the market. No batteries to replace, just place in the charger as needed. I have done over 10 long dives on one charge.

This is an amazingly easy dive watch to use.I'm new to diving and was very hesitant to purchase this, I'm now ordering an AI to attach and I'm looking forward to the integration.Being a new diver the learning curve is steep for me, but it's very intuitive and simple to understand the options available.I personally would recommend this item, it looks amazing and I'm now wearing it everyday (I have the bronze color).

This dive watch is unbelievable! You don’t have to go this high end, shearwater has something for everyone! Simply put, buy shearwater, you will not be disappointed! 🤙🤙

Very easy to read, tons of features for recreational divers, Freedivers and even the most technical multi-tank divers. Easy four button intuitive menu operations and more options than you’ll ever need.I have very small wrists and it’s fine for me, not too ginormous. Shearwater just started supplying these with a durable laminate protective screen cover instead of the glass one which once chipped and cracked is messy. Just get the laminate one for $10 and never use the glass one is my advise.Got this to replace my 15 year old Uwatec AI and what an upgrade! Pricey but worth every penny.

Only mild complaint is sometimes the abbreviations used are unknown. A glossary of them in the materials would help decode. Otherwise this is the best dove computer i have owned and the air integration makes it even better.

If you are looking at this watch you probably dive, and really don’t need much information about Shearwater’s dive features. I purchased this watch as my primary dive computer. It works great. DECO timer and the OLED screen were very useful. Worked with NITROX as well. I really like the screen and that its customizable. Only issue for me is that the battery runs down even on the charging stand if you don’t use/wear it daily. I wish there was a “daily wear setting” so you can just wear it as a thick watch without the battery drain. I bought this new and just don’t like that my battery is at less than 50% after wearing it for the day.
