How To Keep Watch / Computer Secure In Hood
Hi all,
Just wondering what system people use for mounting a watch on your neck. Sometimes I miss my alarm during FIM dives when on my wrist and I want repeatability/reliability.
Putting inside my hood solves the issue, however I'm paranoid about loosing the watch if its not properly secured there which I'm sure will happen sooner or later and its an expensive item to replace.
I have seen some divers basically have a string they loop around the neck to use as a "lanyard" but this still seems like the design or system could be better as its still not particularly secure in place.
I was thinking a wider strap (at least as wide as the watch strap) that goes around the neck. Something that is secure enough to negate risk of loss, but still easy enough to remove whilst out on the buoy if needed and is safe/comfortable.
Is attaching to a neck weight a good option instead of going under the hood?
I'm sure I'll come up with something, but I'm curious to hear what others suggest or do.
No lectures on depth alarms being bad please 😉
