When it comes to dive computers, there are “good enough” ones… and then there’s the Shearwater Perdix 2 Ti. This beast of a computer doesn’t just tell you depth and time; it’s like strapping the Swiss Army knife of dive tech to your wrist — rugged, sleek, and smart enough to make you feel like Iron Man underwater.

At Cuddlefish Divers, we love testing out gear that can handle both Singapore’s challenging local conditions and exotic liveaboards around the world. The Perdix 2 Ti has impressed us across the board. Here’s why:

1. Built Like a Submarine (Titanium Toughness)

The “Ti” stands for Titanium bezel, and you feel it the moment you hold it. It’s scratch-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and designed to shrug off years of saltwater punishment. This isn’t a computer that looks worn after a few wreck dives — it’s built for the long haul.

And the sapphire crystal screen? Bright, clear, and nearly impossible to scratch, even if you accidentally whack it against a ladder (yes, we’ve been there).


2. The Display: Big, Bold, Beautiful

One of the most loved features of Shearwater computers is their easy-to-read display. The Perdix 2 Ti continues that tradition with a full-color LED LCD screen that auto-adjusts brightness. Even in the murky green waters around Singapore or the blue-out abyss of Bali, the numbers pop clearly.

And the best part? You can customize what you see. Want your PPO2 front and center? Done. Want to track your NDL, TTS, and GF at a glance? Easy.

3. Air Integration — Because Hoses are So Last Season

Pair it with the Shearwater Swift transmitters and you get air integration for up to four tanks. This is huge for tech divers, sidemounters, or anyone who just wants fewer dangling hoses. Imagine glancing down and knowing exactly how much gas you and your buddy have — it’s like having x-ray vision.


4. Versatility: From Open Water to Tech God Mode

The Perdix 2 Ti doesn’t judge. Whether you’re a new diver just logging your first dives at Pulau Jong or a trimix diver pushing depth records in the Philippines, this computer has your back.

Modes include:

  • OC Rec – perfect for recreational divers.

  • OC Tec – for advanced nitrox and trimix use.

  • CC/BO – closed circuit with bailout tracking.

  • Gauge – for freedivers or those who just want depth/time.

5. Battery Life That Puts Others to Shame

Forget proprietary chargers. The Perdix 2 Ti runs on a user-replaceable AA battery. Pop in a fresh lithium AA and you’re looking at up to 40 hours of dive time. Translation: you’ll run out of air way before you run out of battery.


6. The Shearwater Cloud Ecosystem

Syncing dive logs has never been easier. The Perdix 2 Ti connects via Bluetooth to the Shearwater Cloud app on your phone, tablet, or desktop. No more fiddling with cables. At Cuddlefish Divers, we love how seamless it is to review dive profiles, plan deco dives, or brag about your epic manta encounters with graphs and data.
