How many dives do you / Friends have on the X1?
I would buy one tomorrow if I felt it was bullet proof.
I a-wait to here from you.

At this point I would say 10 dives. The point that gives me a lot of confidence in the machine is that when compared to the tables generated by V-Planner, one equals the other.
Does it mean that the computer is bullet proof, that it is the computer for you or that I am mister diver extraordinaire? Certainly not.
What I see (hum, perceive?) is a computer that seems to be holding up it's promises.
I have tried many times to plan my dive with the V-Planner tables (VPM B/E at +3) and dive the VR-3 and it would NEVER work out.
I cut my tables on V-Planner with the conservatism that I choose to dive, set the computer to the same level and it works.
That's it. That's my level of expertise with the machine, excuse my enthousiasm if I expressed it too loudly.
I have not tried the GAP version.
