I bought some stuff a few months ago, not knowing what I bought. Scubapro regs, parts and other stuff.

In the pics it shows what I bought. At least some SP MK5s in different forms, amongst them 2 port, 4 port, 5 port and DIN connector. Also a bunch of parts and a regulator I do nor really recognize, but I think it is a MK5 SPEC.

Those DIN MK5s I am happy with.

Also some unknown to me regulator sets of Aquilon, apparently really old.

If anyone could comment on what I got I would be grateful.

You might find info re the Aquilon here:
AMF Swimaster MR12 it was probably a Spiro model

Re the other goodies. If you can find a decent re-chrome facility you may very well have a good find. I went through a similar experience years ago; but where I live it was too expensive to have them refinished. The MK5 DIN fittings are certainly rare and may have made the purchase worthwhile by themselves. @halocline was looking for a MK5 DIN fitting recently.

I have a small stock of MK swivels turrets, caps, and swivel retainers if you're in want/need.

I'm looking forward to your progress.
 
I bought a whole bunch of stuff from a guy that wanted to get rid of some old things, and I paid about US$110 for it. And it is a lot. There are about 14 MK5's, some 109's, in various stages of decomposition, and a lot of parts for those, and then those Aquilon regs.

There was also a MK14 or something, and an r190.

Altogether a lot, and a lot of work, but with this I can make some fully functional MK5 din regs, including the 5-port swivel.
 
Not sure about the "S" es yet, as I cannot say how many of the 109's can be restored. The bag of parts is diverse, so I need to figure out what I can do with the loose parts.
 
environmental model... cool! don't see them too often.

if you mean MK-5 yoke & MK-5 DIN, they should be... It is the MK-5 DIN assembly that is somewhat hard to come by...

The schematic doesn't show a different saddle if yoke or DIN same part number 10-101-050.
 
I should have said that yes. Sorry.

I have not had time to look into it yet, therefore I thought to ask. This means that I now should have 4 DIN MK5s, once they are ready.

Thanks for the answer
