while a unidirectional rotating bezel frames the dial with a decompression gauge. This decompression function provides divers with a useful backup to their diving computers as it indicates how long they can stay under water without needing to decompress.

i still can't read it in a way that makes sense to me.
You set it like a regular bezel, and if you're at 60m deep, you have 5 mins dive time. At 40m deep you have just over 15mins dive time, and at 18m deep, you have 55 mins dive time. (and all the others in-between). Hope that makes sense!

That makes sense, but it's probably easier to just use the dive CPU.

I like the contrasting colors but the bezel markings are very odd.
