Choosing dive computers & instruments means resolving a real trade-off: do you accept a used, untested console for the lowest listed price, pay near $200 for a new Suunto Cobra, or choose a Deep 6 Excursion with a different feature focus? A useful shortcut is to decide whether condition, Cobra console details, or multi-gas and technical modes matter most.
Quick take
- Lowest listed-price path: Suunto Cobra Air Integrated with Compass Console; the key caution is its Used, Untested condition.
- New-in-box path: Suunto Cobra Air-Integrated Scuba Dive Computer - NEW in Box - Console.
- Cobra feature path: Suunto Cobra Dive Computer Air Integrated Console RGBM Nitrox with Extra Battery.
- Multi-gas and technical path: Deep 6 Excursion Scuba Dive Computer for Recreational and Technical Diving New.

Decision matrix
- Price: The compass-equipped Suunto Cobra is the lowest-priced entry. The new-in-box Cobra, RGBM Nitrox Cobra, and Deep 6 Excursion occupy the close upper portion of the range.
- Condition: The compass Cobra is Used. The new-in-box Cobra, RGBM Nitrox Cobra, and Deep 6 Excursion are New.
- Air integration: Air integration is explicitly named in all three Cobra titles, so it is a shared requirement rather than a tie-breaker among those choices.
- Product direction: The three Suunto entries stay within the Cobra line, while Deep 6 Excursion is positioned for recreational and technical diving.
Product notes
Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Scuba Dive Computer Compass Console w/ Case Untested
At USD 119.95, Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Scuba Dive Computer Compass Console w/ Case Untested fits a shopper prioritizing the lowest listed price, a compass, and the case named in the title. Its listed condition is Used, and Untested is the decisive limitation for anyone who wants more certainty about the unit's working status. The air-integrated Cobra console keeps it relevant to a console-focused setup, but the lower price comes with that condition trade-off. Pick it when the compass-and-case details and $119.95 price matter more than buying new.
Suunto Cobra Air-Integrated Scuba Dive Computer - NEW in Box - Console
Suunto Cobra Air-Integrated Scuba Dive Computer - NEW in Box - Console is a fit for shoppers who want a new, original-box Cobra. It includes air integration, tank-pressure, depth, time, and no-decompression-limit tracking, Nitrox compatibility, audible and visual alarms, and a user-replaceable battery. At USD 195.49, the limitation is price: it sits well above the USD 119.95 used, untested Cobra. Choose it when new-in-box condition and the named tracking features matter more than the lowest listed price.
Suunto Cobra Dive Computer Air Integrated Console RGBM Nitrox with Extra Battery
Suunto Cobra Dive Computer Air Integrated Console RGBM Nitrox with Extra Battery suits a shopper who wants specific Cobra console functions in one title. It includes RGBM decompression, Nitrox support, real-time tank-pressure monitoring, Air, Nitrox, and Gauge modes, a bright electroluminescent backlight, audible alarms, altitude adjustment, and an extra battery. Its concrete limitation is the USD 200.00 listed price, the highest in the range. Choose it when the extra battery and named display or mode details are worth prioritizing over a lower listed price.
Deep 6 Excursion Scuba Dive Computer for Recreational and Technical Diving New
Deep 6 Excursion Scuba Dive Computer for Recreational and Technical Diving New suits a shopper whose plan calls for multi-gas and technical-dive functions. Features include Nitrox from 20% to 99% across four gases, Helitrox up to 22% helium, the Bühlmann ZHL-16C algorithm, user-settable gradient factors, Scuba, Planning, Apnea/Free Diving, and Gauge modes, Bluetooth for logging and updates, and CE certification. At USD 199.00, the limitation is that it costs nearly as much as the highest-priced Cobra while offering a different product line and feature direction. Pick it for the named recreational-and-technical scope, not for a Cobra console identity.
Final recommendation by use case
- Lowest-price route: Choose the Suunto Cobra Air Integrated Scuba Dive Computer Compass Console w/ Case Untested if Used and Untested are acceptable and the compass-and-case combination fits the plan.
- New-in-box condition: Choose the Suunto Cobra Air-Integrated Scuba Dive Computer - NEW in Box - Console for its new packaging and stated tracking functions.
- Extra battery and Cobra console details: Choose Suunto Cobra Dive Computer Air Integrated Console RGBM Nitrox with Extra Battery when its RGBM, Nitrox, display, and battery details are the deciding factors.
- Multi-gas or technical diving: Choose Deep 6 Excursion Scuba Dive Computer for Recreational and Technical Diving New for its multi-gas, Helitrox, gradient-factor, and multiple-mode feature set.
The practical decision is therefore clear: accept the condition limitation for the lower-priced Suunto, select new Cobra packaging, prioritize the extra-battery Cobra configuration, or move to the Deep 6 Excursion for its broader named gas and mode controls.
