$250 for a mask? Oh. Hell. No.
Find one that fits.
I really like the black, I feel it actually improves my vision.
I have a mask with a clear skirt as well but prefer the black.
What will make a new mask a "better" mask? And what is wrong with the one that you were able to clear? (the old "if it ain't broke..")I am still buying a newer better mask
So this is overkill? Oceanic DataMask HUD Computer with Transmitter 04.8800.07
Well, that's more than just a mask. And really, since it's also an Air integrated computer, it's not a bad price.So this is overkill? Oceanic DataMask HUD Computer with Transmitter 04.8800.07
It's great that you solved the problem, and I admire your tenacity. Well done.
My question about when you wrote:

I also agree with Keith M $250...no
Most important is fit-and, based on what you've said in this thread, an appropriate nose pocket.
I'd suggest that you shop where you can "try it out"-in the water. (I'm not sure how many shops let you do that any more.)
or, absent that, can you try masks belonging to friends,etc?
Good luck with it and with your diving.
