    Galileo luna >>small air bubble inside the screen>> Defect? or...easy fix?

    I dive the Sol and when I first got mine it had a bubble in it. Are you at altitude?

My bubble was about the size of a dime and according to...

Generally the reef dives there are shallow (if you want to get much below 25 feet you better bring a shovel so you can dig to get there) and pretty...
