If you had the opportunity and the means to replace one piece of gear that you already own, what would you replace, why would you replace it, and what would be your choice now that you can do it right?

With the gear that I have I think I would replace my Dacor Flyt Pak BCD. The reason is because I would like some pockets, and it has only weight capacity of 32 pounds, which in salt water is two less than I need with skins so I pushed it to 34. Not sure with what but I would still want back inflation and weight integrated, but with rear trim weights and a 40 pound capacity since I am REALLY bouyant!
 
Dacor Nautica WD --> Seaquest Pro QD

Got the Nautica for my OW cert because it was on sale at a LDS, and the rental shop did not have a BC that fit me. Now I'm stuck with it.

The problem with the Nautica is that it's not a great BC ... but, it's not a bad BC either. It works well enough that I can't justify replacing it. Hence, I'm stuck with this BC.
