This display screen cover protection film is die cut to fit only the Shearwater Perdix model dive computer, does NOT fit the Petrel. The film also comes pre-installed on all new Shearwater Perdix dive computers.
This TPU type film is supplied to us by Shearwater Research, manufactured and die cut by Avery Dennison to Shearwater's specifications for poly-carbonate face plate of the Perdix. Unlike the PET film protector for the Teric, this product is not packaged for end-user application. The film has a "hazy" and unclear look until it is properly applied. The application of TPU film requires special tools and techniques that is critical to it's finished clarity and it is difficult to properly apply. If your Perdix screen is scratched or damaged, we recommend factory maintenance service instead of replacing the factory applied film.
'Had bubbles under film until I dove it to 100 feet. This squeezed the bubbles out, and now works like original.
I believe it is same one from Shearwater, and they put it on before they pressure tested it to 250 feet (as evidenced by dive 999 left on computer).

Great screen protector, has saved my Perdix from several scratches, bumps and bangs.
Do you trust your Shearwater? Then you should trust their instructions for changing the screen protectors.

The screen protectors and the method to apply them works just fine. As a matter of fact, it's easier than doing the same to a phone. Anybody who is willing to read the one page, five step instructions will do just fine. The process takes 10 minutes a screen.....maybe.

Complete waste of money. I have approximately 100 dives on my perdix and had a few marks on my original screen protector film that came installed on my Perdix. I ordered 3 of these thinking that it would be great to have spares. The info for this item clearly states that the manufacture is "Sherwater Reaserch", however this is just a junk Avery Dennison Clear film cut to the exact size of the Perdix screen. I could have saved a lot of money by going to the local office supply store and made my own. I wouldn't mind so bad if the screen protector actually was clear and easy to read the screen. If is the perfect size, but the screen looks horrible now. I pulled it off and compared the transparency of the replacement screen protector to the OE one, and it is obvious that they are not the same quality. I have now wasted my money and time and I still have no screen protector. If i could give it no stars i would.
It appears the customer failed to follow the manufacturer directions for applying the film. See the product attachments tab for a document describing how to properly apply the film.

The protector film is what it is. So there is not a lot to say about it. Dive Gear Express, however, is efficient, knowledgeable and represents the best value for money that I have ever known of any dive shop online or offline. Delivery is fast even though it may be a little costly as I live in Asia. Still, I am a repeat customer many times over as it is the best in terms of quality and value, especially its DGX products. No hype or hyperbole, just good solid quality at the best price.
