Got my first chance to use my reconditioned Scubapro MK5 regulator first purchased new in early '70's. Hadn't dove since mid '80's (long story) until moving back to Florida a few years ago. Had been told by one or two LDS owners/techs that it wasn't "worth the expense" to have the MK5 reconditioned. But, after reading several related threads on this site, I decided "what the heck" and sent it to Bryan at Vintage Double Hose. Got it completely reconditioned, including stainless swivel retainer. Anyway, dove Vortex Springs in NW Florida and took it down to 50'. Was like welcoming home an old friend. The old workhorse (the regulator, not me ) still breathes like a champ. Hope to make an open water dive with it this week or next.
