    Dive Shop advice: cenote dive and Cozumel ....please

    It would be helpful if you would tell who the Divemasters were that caused the problem and what the problems were. The blanket statement "Some really good, Some really bad is not much to go on.

    Mares icon HD, firmware 4.0

    I am curious why you bought the Icon over the others? Mares chains you to nothing. It was your choice to buy the Icon over the others. I would not buy nothing that I didn't research completely first. You can freely download the Icon manual from Mares. It plainly states: "ICON HD uses a...

    Mares icon HD, firmware 4.0

    Let me know if you are able to buy one other than from Mares. I haven't been able to find any. It sounds to me like your Local Dive Center is a little high. If you buy your computer from us we will replace the battery for just the cost of the battery. Also if I replace your battery and it leaks...

The Icon computer battery must be changed by a certified "Mares Lab" Tech. Just because you are a Mares dealer don't mean you can work on their gear. I have attended several...

    Mares liquid skin I3 arrived broken?

    Not common at all. These are great mask. They also have a great warranty so you shouldn't have any trouble getting the dealer you bought from to replace it.
