Bio Metal mask

[buddhasummer]

After much searching, small face, I think Ive finally found a mask that will fit me and its the Bio Metal mask but I noticed in the same shop they also sold a Bio Metal Pro, can anyone tell me the difference between the Bio Metal and Bio Metal Pro?

Im not interested in the Bio Metal Pro as it didnt fit as well but am curious because it was twice the price and looking at them side by side I couldnt tell except the buckles looked a bit diff....Thanks

Im becoming a big Apollo fan, cool well made gear.

The bio-metal pro mask has a polished stainless steel frame with ceramic coating.
The internal volume is 60cc-45% less than the aluminum framed bio-metal mask. This reduction in internal volume results in a substantial increase in viewing angle.

Apollo Sports introduces the new bio-metal pro mask.

Since 1965 Apollo Sports has forged a unique reputation. Apollo creates products using the finest design, the best materials and exacting craftsmanship. Those divers who demand the best, demand Apollo.

The new bio-metal pro mask is the latest addition to this world famous line. The bio-metal pro has a special stainless steel frame polished with ceramic coating.. The stainless steel frame will accept a number of accessory items including specially designed Apollo mask lights.

The bio-metal pro mask is manufactured using the highest-grade soft silicone skirt with a twin-curved rim. This new skirt provides the diver with a snug seal and exceptional comfort.

Strap adjustment is push button controlled for ease of use under any conditions.

Internal volume of the bio-metal pro is 60cc. This great reduction in internal volume moves the lens closer to the divers eyes and produces a field of vision of over 100 degrees.

The Apollo bio-metal pro mask is strong, durable, and very easy to pack. Each mask comes with a padded cordura travel bag with mesh drain panels.

For those who demand the best; serious sport divers, advanced technical divers, Underwater photographers, spear fishermen, instructors, and dive guides, the best mask on the planet is now available:

Apollo bio-metal pro at select retailers only.

The bio-metal pro mask with the ultra low volume skirt will fit most regular and narrow faces. The pro mask is also available with a wider
115cc volume skirt, the same skirt used on the original bio-metal mask.
