Suunto D5 Black - 100 m Dive Computer With 6-12 Hours
Published on 09/22/2026 at 11:33 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Suunto D5 Black is a wrist-mounted dive computer with a color screen, rechargeable battery, digital compass, and interchangeable straps. Its 100 m water resistance places it in the recreational dive-computer category, while Air, Nitrox, Free-Dive, and Gauge modes cover four documented operating modes.
Core Dive Specifications
The computer weighs 90 g (3.17 oz) and measures 53 mm by 53 mm. The display resolution is 320 by 240 pixels, and the rechargeable lithium-ion battery provides 6-12 hours in diving mode or up to 6 days in time mode.
Suunto rates the D5 for depths up to 100 m (328 ft), with compliance to EN 13319 and ISO 6425. The technical specification also lists an operating diving temperature range of 32-104 degrees Fahrenheit.
Modes And Connectivity
The D5 uses Suunto Fused RGBM 2 for dive calculations and supports up to three gas mixtures in Air and Nitrox use. A full-color memory-in-pixel screen with LED backlight provides the main display, while audible and vibrating alarms communicate dive information.
Bluetooth connectivity transfers dive logs to the Suunto app after a dive. Wireless tank-pressure monitoring requires a Suunto Tank POD, which is an optional accessory rather than part of the base computer package. The computer also includes a 3D digital compass with tilt compensation up to 45 degrees.
US Price And Package
As of 09/22/2026, the Suunto D5 Wrist Computer with USB Cable All Black is listed at $348.99, with a listed regular price of $499.00. The cited US listing identifies model SS050192000 and describes a base configuration with USB cable.
The package contents are the Suunto D5 wrist computer and USB cable, with a quick guide, dive legal leaflet, and owner's manual also listed for the product. The Tank POD package is a different configuration and should not be treated as included with this model.
Placement For Recreational Divers
The Suunto D5 Black fits divers who want a color-screen computer with Air, Nitrox, Free-Dive, and Gauge modes, compass guidance, and post-dive app transfer. Compared with a basic depth-and-time gauge, it adds rechargeable power, customizable displays, decompression calculations, and optional wireless tank data.
The limits are equally concrete: the base configuration does not include the Tank POD, and its 6-12-hour dive battery range requires charging between extended diving days. For recreational divers who value a watch-sized interface and do not need a transmitter in the box, the D5 is a focused computer rather than a full air-integration bundle.
