Ho scelto questo modello Donatello perch avevo gi provato in diverse occasioni il fratello minore Leonardo.
E’ un computer di ottima fattura, molto intuitivo. L’unico inconveniente il singolo bottone a pressione per fare le varie operazioni, un po’ stancante.
Per il resto lo consiglio al 100%, un buon prodotto sia per neofiti che per avanzati.
Un ordenadoe de buceo muy practico, facil de utilizar y con muuchisimas ventajas a un precio que realmente vale la pena, en este diseo cressi excelente 10/10 y lo recomiendo para todo tipo de divers recreativos y de todas las edades
Ich komme von Tauchcomputern aus den 2000er als man noch riesige “Laptops” am handgelenk trug und an der ersten Stufe ein Sender hing. Der Batteriewechsel war umstndlich und musste vom Hersteller durgefhrt werden. Irgendwann schlief das ein und ich beschloss nach vielen hundert Tauchgngen keinen Computer mehr zu kaufen und einfach mit Tiefenmesser, Uhr und ner kleinen Decotabelle ins Wasser zu gehen. Doch heute habe ich den Donatello getestet und muss sagen, WOW was hat sich doch nicht alles gendert. Wir haben hier einen Computer nicht grer wie eine Outdoor Smartwatch, mit allem was das Taucherherz bentigt:

Mittlerweile wurde der Computer auch wenn es frisch war 😉 ein paar mal getaucht. Er funktioniert sehr gut. Auch die Ablesbarkeit ist toll. Die Beleuchtung des Hintergrunds ist schn hell. Die gesamte Bedienung ist intuitiv, durchdacht und kann auch mit Handschuhen vorgenommen werden. Die Verarbeitung ist tadellos. Auch der Batteriewechsel klappt einwandfrei. Insgesamt ist das ein Computer, der alles hat , was man braucht. Das Preis/Leistungsverhltnis ist daher top.
Es ist ein Kabelgebundenes Interface, als Alternative zur Bluetooth-Version, erhltlich.
Ich wrde ihn wieder kaufen.
Lost my last computer so didn’t want to spend a fortune on it, but when used I leaned money doesn’t make it better, this is all I need for an extraordinary price
It’s very legible and visible down below on dives. Relatively easy to set up. It’s my second Cressi dive computer in 8 years. I like that it shows you things like the sea temperature, safety stop time in minutes and seconds, etc.
Attention montre norme 😉 En fait c’est un ordinateur de plonge mais je l’utilise tous les jours comme montre. Trs belle montre, bien sr on peut tout rgler commencer par la date et l’heure ! Bien plus grosse que mon ancienne SUUNTO D4 mais bien moins chre galement !
This watch is HUGE. The display is very easy to read.
It is controlled with a single button – so while underwater, you do not need to look and think about which button to press. I strongly recommend familiarising yourself with the all the menus before you go diving with it.
The watch feels very robust. The screen, strap and buckle are good quality.
The watch is designed, developed and manufactured in Italy.
It’s great that you can change the battery without tools.
It is waterproof up to 150 metres deep.
I like that there is an option to disable all alarms, so you can use it without stress, when you feel like it.
Unfortunately I have not been able to physically test this in open water yet as due to coronavirus travel restrictions I have been unable to dive since early 2020. I have my PADI Open water qualification and I am relatively fair weather diver enjoying scenic dive spots in warmer climates. I have traditionally just rented equipment locally however I was extremely excited to get this Cressi dive computer as it has more than enough features for a relatively infrequent diver like myself. It’s really easy to customise the menu to show the data that you need in the order you prefer, I can also log data overtime for instance how many days you have completed and total depth et cetera which for people doing decompression drives et cetera will be useful feature where is for myself it would be more interesting. Even though I have my qualification I always prefer to dive with qualified local guides and therefore always have a second pair of eyes looking out for me but diving with this computer would give me a lot more confidence in my own safety even if my guide wasn’t particularly good.
I originally got this to try out on holiday as I wanted to go Scuba Diving. Unfortunately, Covid has meant I’ve not been able to do that yet but I’ve tried the watch out and it seems to work well. The display is nice big which makes it easy to read. There’s just a single button for all the controls so it takes some getting used to. After a while, you do get used to it and it seems normal. The watch strap is nice and big and should easily fit on your wrist unless you’re a giant of the hulk lol. It’s a quality unit that’s really well built and I look forward trying it out when I can go on holiday again.
This is really good and sturdy diving computer.
It is a bit bulky,but does the job well.
It has a bright backlight.
The CR2430 battery lasts which is good.
You can replace the battery with a coin,but make sure it is big in size as the battery cover is hard to take off.
You can dive up to -150M with this computer so it needs to be well sealed.
The diving computer has 4 diving mode:
AIR,MIX,GAUGE and FREE diving modes.
You can plan your dive and log up to 50 dives per mode.
The data is visible with large numbers on a 50mm display.
You can get the bluetooth interface which is sold separately and transfer the data to your computer or phone.
You can deactivate the computer and use it just as a watch if you are just snorkeling.
The straps are really long, so the diving computer will fit even if you wear the thickest diving suits and you have extra large hands.
Hopefully my review was Helpful for you.
This single-push button diving computer from Cressi is indeed a sturdy piece of diving kit that I believe should be on any beginner’s wrist if they are into diving and want to make it more technical or understand their diving better.
In terms of build quality, holding and wearing this Cressi Donatello made me feel how sturdy and durable it is. It definitely gives a sense of safety that it won’t break somewhere underwater for whatever reason (as long as you don’t hit it against a rock or something).
Based on my exploration of the menu functions, this version is made with beginners’ safety in mind. There are different indicators that stand for different data that can inform divers about their status and safety. These include the counter for toxicity levels, maximum depth indicator, and other features that I would share once I explore this and understand it further.
The led is bright enough to make the values readable at the dimmest of places so there is no worry that you might not read the needed information at certain depths.
With an easily removable battery, this Cressi Donatello diving computer seems to provide a pretty straightforward tool for beginners, which allows any person to learn how to use it and manage it on their own.
Firstly, the screen display seems legible and so does the font, making it easy to read and operate when diving. It features a large button that can be pressed even if you have big fingers and large gloves on. Pressing and holding the button will illuminate the screen, allowing you to still read the display in the darkest environments. You can also purchase additional accessories to allow you to integrate bluetooth and app sync for more in depth results/data at a faster glance. I found that this Bluetooth sync was super easy to do and the app was naturally intuitive to navigate.
As for the diving computer ergonomics, it was relatively thick though still comfortable to wear In the same way you would wear a smart watch. I had no issues here. It features a safety stop warning too, which is a feature more commonly found it more expensive computers so it’s nice that Cressi Donatello featured it here. Overall, very pleased and perfect for both beginner and experience divers. Looks great too. As for the material, it seems highly durable and impact resistant, hence I believe that this diving computer was built to last you a life time.
Thank you for reading my honest review, I hope you found it helpful! 🙂
Ich mchte an dieser Stelle gar nicht um den heien Brei reden, denn der Tauchcomputer Donatello von Cressi ist definitiv eine absolute Bereicherung sowie perfekte Untersttzung fr Freunde der Unterwasserwelt.
Schon beim Auspacken des Tauchcomputers ist fllt die sehr gute Verarbeitung auf. Das groe und gut beleuchtete Display berzeugt auf Anhieb, denn es ist schlielich wichtig die angezeigten Informationen im Wasser gut lesen zu knnen. Selbst bei trben Gewssern wird es, auch dank des kontrastreichen Displays, keine Probleme geben. Das Display ist zudem mit einem Schutzglas und Kunststoffeinfassungsring ausgestattet und sehr gut geschtzt.
Den Tauchcomputer gibt es in drei Farben zu kaufen; Schwarz-Rot, Schwarz-Silber oder Schwarz-Blau. Das Armband besteht aus TPU-Gummi und die Schnalle wurde aus Edelstahl hergestellt. Dies stellt sowohl in Sals- als auch Swasser berhaupt kein Problem dar und ist ein weiteres Zeichen fr die Wertigkeit des Tauchcomputers. Die flache Bauweise mit dem ergonomischen Design sorgt zudem, dass man sich nicht gestrt fhlt.
Betrieben wird der Tauchcomputer mittels CR2450-Knopfzellen, die selber gewechselt werden knnen. Das Batteriefach befindet sich an der Unterseite und ist schnell zu ffnen wie zu schlieen.
Kommen wir aber zum wichtigsten, die Funktionen. Durch die verwendete Nitrox-Technologie des Tauchcomputers eignet sich dieses Gert sowohl fr Freitauchen sowie Tauchen mit Sauerstoffflaschen genutzt werden. Ausgelegt ist das Gert fr eine Tiefe von 150 Meter.
Wie schon weiter oben geschrieben ist das Display sehr gut abzulesen. Hierbei werden die wichtigsten Informationen (Tiefe, Tauchzeit, Dekompression, Uhr u.v.m.) ordentlich aufgegliedert und hat diese auch direkt im Auge. Die Navigation der Infos wird ber eine kleine Stahltaste im unteren Bereich durchgefhrt. Einfach die Taste kurz drcken und man kann im Men die Einstellungen ndern. Hierbei ist zu beachten, dass je nach Lnge des Bettigens der Taste, verschiedene Mens geffnet werden.
Was mir sehr gut gefllt, der Tauchcomputer kann ber eine optionale Schnittstelle die aufgezeichneten Daten an ein Smartphone oder Computer bertragen. So kann man sich seine Tauchgnge z.B. auch in einer Grafik darstellen lassen. Hierbei ist zu beachten das bei einem Smartphone unter Android die Version 7.0, bei iOS die Version 10 und bei Computern mindestens Windows 7 vorhanden ist.
Ich kann den Tauchcomputer wirklich jedem der gerne in die Tiefe abtaucht weiterempfehlen, da mich dieses Produkt absolut berzeugt hat. Man kann sogar als Alternative die Tauchfunktion des Computers deaktivieren und ihn einfach zum Schnorcheln oder Schwimmen nutzen.
A great diving watch from the Cressi range which I had the pleasure of reviewing. The watch has nice large high contrast display which is easy to read even in bright sunlight. When under water or in dark areas then you have the backlight so can be used even for night dives. The screen is also scratch resistant. It’s a durable and robust watch with a rubberised feel to it. The watch fitted well on my wrist and was snug but did not restrict my hand and wrist movements. The menu is a bit tricky to navigate and most of it is accessed using just one button so can get a bit used to unless you are used to Cressi diving computers. Long press and short presses lets you access the various menus. There are 4 modes air, nitrox, freedive and gauge. This allows 50 dives to be saved and logged in each of the modes. If you ant to export the data though you need an interface kit — there is no Bluetooth sync out the box. There are lots of other features and some great safety features like alarms for maximum depth, PPO2 violation and ascent speed. The battery is long life as it uses lithium ones but they are user replaceable. This is a fantastic entry level diving computer with a lot of features for a great price.
For a beginner/ intermediate entry level dive computer this has a number of enviable features.
Very similar to Cressi’s very popular Leonardo, which was recommended by a marine biologist whist we were diving in the Indian Ocean. This one offers almost parallel with new and improved adjustments to iron out issues in the Leonardo.
It’s available in not only the wrist watch version, but also has a couple of console versions with the addition of some gauges.
This model too, continues in the same vein, in that it uses a single button navigation on their entry level devices.
The navigation is simple and quick to figure out. I am able to navigate using this single button to flick through various options to set my preferred parameters.
I am able to dive with air and also with Nitrox. The large display shows oxygen toxicity levels clearly in collaboration with the CNS.
The algorithm remains the same as many on Cressi – the RGBM which has plenty of history to backup it’s well tried and tested safety in the industry – allowing for conservatism adjustments and altitude configuration. It’s able to withstand many and consecutive decompression dives prolonged over a number of days.
It also has a ‘history RESET’ feature, which makes it suited for dive hire places, as they’re able to wipe all records ready for the next user.
Cressi have listened to customer feedback about the Leonardo’s dimly lit backlight and increased the brightness of the light in this model, which now is satisfyingly well balanced, even in poor sunlight. The clear and very visible large face, which is similar in circumference to a tennis ball, as well as the large alphanumeric vivid display, assists in ability to quickly obtain the information I need whilst on a dive.
It also allows for you to control the dive computer whilst you’re submerged. It connects via bluetooth to your smart devices.
A definite improvement over the highly respected Leonardo in the entry level category. possibly even the best available on the market at the time of writing with all the features that I would like to see in this category; or even as a backup good value dive computer for an experienced diver. Plus noticeble improvements over the Leonardo and the ability to reset the history, making it a desirable computer for the dive rental market too.
If you’re looking for a very good entry level dive computer, that has all the latest technology and packed with features to match your requirements then I can totally recommend the Donatello.
Es ist mein erster Tauchcomputer und es hat mich sehr Freude gemacht. Er hat alles was ich gewollte habe. Er ist einfach zu bedienen, obwohl er nur ein Knopf hat. Also unter Wasser muss man nicht suchen und berlegen , welcher Knopf zu drcken ist. Mein Vorschlag wre zuerst das Gert kennenlernen, es gibt auf Youtube viele Videos und sie sind sehr hilfreich.
Er lsst sich schnell und einwandfrei mit dem Handy verbunden, um Daten zu speichern und schauen. Der Computer passt fr dick und dnne Arme. Er ist auch robust und leicht. Also von mir 5 Sterne.
This is aimed at the beginner diver. The features offered are more limited than more expensive models and the single navigation system is easier to master. There are four dive modes (air, nitrox, gauge and freedive). The grey colour and blue facia circle makes it attractive to wear but some might find the unit on the big size. However, this does mean that the display is also big and easier to read. There is no built-in Bluetooth which is a big negative.
I’ve used a Suunto Gecko for 10 years and its only now I thought I needed a change.
So first off it quite large but the upside is that the display is easy to read
I used it in warm water with viz around 50m so it was not really tried in UK , viz in front of your nose …
Default is clearly Air but it was simple on the Dive screen to put in Nitrox percentages and calculate MOD
On the dive it was a clear current depth , max depth on the dive, time to deco. and dive duration
It did flash as I approached decompression time so that was handy and once into deco. it swapped to time left..once that was gone you got a mm.ss countdown to the end of the safety stop
For the fashion conscious its grey with a blue facia circle
It also has a neat dive planning feature and PC link as well
For me it seemed solid, focusing on what I needed to know as an air/nitrox single cylinder diver mostly. Not sure about the more technical dives but for me I liked it a lo
Professional Dive Wrist Computer for Diving and Freediving.
I brought it for my husband who didn’t like it in the beginning because he stopped doing diving since last year, but recently when he tried it he totally changed his mind, he loved it and he was surprised, he found it very professional, easy to use, practical and got many great features.
Plus :
– It looks great ( Elegant)
– Made in Italy.
– Heavy duty
– Value for money
A single button navigation system perfect with beginner divers. As this is an entry level device, the feature set is limited however Cressi have added the freedive mode to the features compared to the Leonardo
Four dive modes are supported
Air, Nitrox, Gauge and Freedive
Like is all current Cressi driver computers, the Donatello uses the Cressi RGBM algorithm, which is well established and will ensure your diving remain safe. Another feature similar with other Cressi dive computers is the ability to reset the history which would be useful if you were to choose to upgrade to a more powerful model and trade the Donatello in etc.
As others have mentioned, Bluetooth is not built into the Donatello and requires a clip-on module. The Donatello would have been more useful with integrated Bluetooth, hence dropping a star.
This is a great device: I was immediately struck by its robust construction, and the fact that it has simplified (i.e. one button navigation). The manufacturer’s product description doesn’t make it clear but this is useful for general scuba diving (including both with air and nitrox) as well as freediving. My only gripe is that whilst this can theoretically be connected to a smartphone / computer via bluetooth or usb cable (i.e. for backing up the logs afterwards – obviously you don’t use it whilst diving, duh!), THE INTERFACE IS SOLD SEPARATELY.
