About the Products
What happens when you add the superior sharpness of segmented characters, clarity of a perfectly laid-out display, and top it off with ergonomic advantages of two buttons? You get Smart, probably the smartest computer on the market.
The new Smart Apnea represents the evolution of the Nemo Apneist, becoming the benchmark dive computer for the most demanding spear fishermen and free divers. Smart Apnea is very simple and intuitive to use.

What customers say about "Key Specs"
Mares Smart Wrist Dive Computer
  • I bought this as an intermediate level dive computer for someone special. He loves to wear it as a generic watch as well as using it for diving.
  • I'm a new diver and bought this for a trip to Key Largo. It worked great. Fairly easy to use and not too bulky.
  • Extremely intuitive and easy to use. Much smaller than I expected. I ended up wearing it most all day every day without even thinking to take it off.
  • I love the backlit feature and the ease of changing from Air to Nitrox mode.
  • Not much larger than a large watch. Definitely much much better than a hockey puck.
Mares Smart Apnea Dive Computer
  • Great watch, very easy to use for freediving
  • Great watch for freediving. It's probably one of the more detailed and accurate watches out there.
  • I'm very glad I bought, cause its been made specifically for freediving.
  • Great watch I am an Australian freediver, found this watch to be perfect in all aspects of free diving including training and swimming Pool static
  • For sport freedivers it has 6 audible depth alarms, I used just three on my dive, one to indicate the start of freefall

What customers say about "Features"
Mares Smart Wrist Dive Computer
  • Two button operation is very intuitive, display is easy to read, reasonably good watch functionality
  • A mid level device that is backlit, easy to read, costing less than 1/2 others -- easy to program and software can be updated readily
  • The sound beep alarm when acending too fast can easily be heard. The display is easily visible under water.
  • It really helped with my ascents by slowing me down, and keeping me at the proper depth.
  • Nitrox compatable is nice. I've used it on 40+ dives and it's awesome.
Mares Smart Apnea Dive Computer
  • You can preset this watch to remind u when to do everything on your decent and also make sure u don't blackout by pushing too hard on your ascent (slow is smooth, smooth is fast, slow down to speed up).
  • Its pretty straight forward, it only has 2 buttons and that makes it easier, when your hands are cold.
  • Great watch with superior features. I am a certified freediver/Spearo and used many watches in the past. This tops my list
  • This is a perfect watch. It has all of the information you need to monitor your depth, dive time, breath ups, recovery and more.
  • Diving information perfectly fit the display. Great for beginner & advanced freedivers.
