Shearwater Perdix 3 Dive Computer
The most significant leap in Shearwater history.
The Perdix line has been the go-to choice for serious technical divers for years — trusted in caves, on rebreathers, on deep mixed-gas dives. The Perdix 3 doesn't reinvent that reputation. It supercharges it. A 2.4" full-color AMOLED display with 4× the resolution of its predecessor, titanium construction throughout, and 6× faster Bluetooth — this is what the next decade of technical diving looks like on your wrist.
Shearwater engineered the Perdix 3 around two hardware upgrades that fundamentally change how you interact with your computer at depth:
- 2.4" Full-Color AMOLED Display — 4× higher resolution than the Perdix 2 and dramatically brighter. The new "Big" layout mode puts giant, instantly readable numbers on screen — no squinting, no second-guessing, no ambiguity when it matters most.
- 6× Faster Bluetooth + Enhanced Data Security — Dive log downloads and firmware updates that used to take minutes now take seconds. Your data is better protected, and your computer stays current without the wait.
Wireless air integration supports up to 4 Shearwater transmitters simultaneously, a user-replaceable AA battery keeps you in the water without hunting for a charger, and programmable quick-change settings let you move between configurations without digging through menus. Available in Black (SKU: 13501-01) and Silver (SKU: 13501-02), with 14 color themes and thousands of display combinations to make the screen your own.

"I've been diving Shearwater computers for years — through my Master Instructor training, through Tec 50, and through the kind of diving where a computer failure isn't an inconvenience, it's a problem. When a piece of gear lives on your wrist through hundreds of dives, teaching open water one morning and planning a deco dive in the afternoon, it stops being equipment and starts being part of how you think underwater. The Perdix line earned that role a long time ago. The Perdix 3 takes everything that made it irreplaceable and fixes the one thing I'd always wanted better: the display. The AMOLED screen is in a different league. Sharper, brighter, and more readable at depth than anything I've seen on a wrist computer. Add the Big layout and you've got numbers you can read the instant you glance down — not after your eyes adjust. If you're serious about diving and you want a computer you'll still trust a thousand dives from now, order this one."— Morad Hassan, PADI Master Instructor & Tec 50 | OTA Scuba & Swim, Katy TX
