Hi all, Maybe someone can help

[kml9705]

I just purchased a used Nokia Baltic dry suit and I have been looking for information on this item. I would like some info on the Care and Maintenance of this item along with the manufacurer's contact info. I can not find any info on the web except for Nokia Phones. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ken L.

Welcome to SB!! :happywave Put us in your computer's favorites and check in often. This is a great place to learn, compare, argue Look around our various forums - everything from New-To-Scuba to Instructors-Only to Dive Medicine.

Yep, I like Nokia phones, and it's my business. You would do better to research on our Exposure Protection forum...

BTW - Did you set up your Profile? Some ideas for your Profle might be taken from looking at mine. Click on my Username to the upper left, then click on my Profile, and see what I've done. For your's, click the [CP] in the upper left of the screen, then click [Edit Profile]. If you need any more help, PM me direct.

And don't forget to wash your hands after handling meat, poultry or fish.

Hi Jeff. The Nokia Diving suit company was sold to Trelleborg/ Viking and they produced the Nokia suits in Sweden for some time, but not now.
You can not find any new Nokia, only Viking Pro from Sweden or the almost similar Hunter ( Gates) PRO AM 1050.
Best regards

: I am looking for details on Nokia Safety Equipment Ltd. drysuits... I have one and want to know more about it. It was made in finland.

It seems that some years ago Nokia sold off all its manufacturing businesses and concentrated on
mobile phones. If you go to their website you can
see this under "history". It's a pity for divers that
they stopped production but they seem to have
made more money from mobiles!

If you go to the Dyk & Brand website you can
download a Trelleborg Viking .pdf on the use of
the Viking drysuit - which as Bjorn from Dyk &
Brand indicated is similar to the Nokia.


Best Wishes,

Sixtiesdiver.

Whoops - I've noticed that Dyk & Brand no longer have the .pdf
to download but you can get it from Trellborg site
- look for "downloads"

If you brought your drysuit from Jersey and dove off California, would that be cosidered "roaming"?
