Are the rumors true? Atomic BCD!

[Alastor]

Is it automatic ? Does it conduct the dive itself ? And bring you in the right places to spot for big animals ?
Optionally can be equipped with automatic rinse and dry feature ?
If it would even pay for the dive could be ideal ...
(BTW it's nice looking ... nobody knows which kind of encounters can be done in the deep)

$1400 for a BC that is absolutely ridiculous! Let me guess, It's life support, your life depends on this piece of equipment.

Atomic has the BMV, Porsche, Mercedes approach to marketing.

They manufacture product at the same price others do.

They have good advertising and play into the "upper echelon".

Many seem to buy into it all, Much like the proud owner of "the ultimate driving machine"
after paying a few hundred dollars for a oil change and "checkup".

1400...my entire gear package (Apeks xtx50/DST reg set, Waterproof W3, Tecline BP/W) cost me about that. Maybe. New. Yeesh.

It's not diveable at $1400. Remember you need to add an inflator.

Even after the inflator, there is a extra cost for the super high-end Atomic Aquatics air.

Good on BMW.

Should I wear a BMW for buoyancy ? Never seen one with the inflator
