I also discovered that Mares Puck indicates current ascent rate in meters/feet per minute in BOTTOM TIME mode. The max. measurement depth is 150 meters. Looks to me as robust and simple to use device... Any contras?

The OSTC also shows ascent and decent rate and with the OSTC MKII color changes if you go to fast fe.
Not realy a bottom timer but the Nemo wide and puck aren't that as well.
And OSCT is in same price range.

Agree it's a great trimix computer, but way not in the same price range - costs ~700 EUR in Europe. All Mares DCs (Wide, Puck, Icon) are able to work in BOTTOM TIME mode and indicates ascent speed in meters/feet per minute, starting from 1m/3ft. You can find Mares PUCK for as low as 250 USD (in US) and it also can be bungee mounted on wrist. Didn't find any negative responses about it so far...
