Halcyon BCDs in WanChai Hongkong

[goodeatsfan]

Hi fellow scubaboarders, anyone here know where I can go to get a halcyon BCD in Wanchai district in hongkong?

Andrew has some, but he is closer to Stanley. I think the listed Halcyon dealer is IN Wanchai. Are you in Hong Kong now. I'm in the Navy and that is my next stop. Much later this month though. If you make it out to see Andrew he is a nice fella. I met him this spring. Some buddies and I where going dive with him but due to weather and work had to cancel. He has a nice selection of tech gear out there. I think it is Avalon Marina is where the shop is. Mandarin Divers, thats it. I could not remeber. I need to send some emails to get some dives set up when I get there. Good luck. Have fun.

There are two dive shops close to you - one on Lockhard Road opposite Wan Chai MTR - Pro Dive.

The other is in Causeway Bay, on Hennessy Road I think. Not sure if either does Halycon BCD but it shouldn't take you long to find out

hey fellas, thanks for the replies. Reason is I heard someone earlier today tell me that the 30lb eclipse was going for about USD500+ and he saw it in Wan Chai. So I'm like trying to find it and get my brother-in-law there to get them for me.

500us for the MC System? Might have to ge me another one when I get there if this is true!

Here is the Pro-Dive website

which has a map on the contact page, as well as phone numbers.

Trying to remember the name of the shop in Causeway Bay, they set me on the path to diving by selling me a wetsuit and I can't remember their name.... grr !

I think Madarin Divers is near Causeway Bay. If I remeber correct, Causeway Bay is just before Sanley, so it could be the same shop. The only other shop I know of for sure is in Kawloon, but they are more on the rec level and didn't have any backplate rigs much less Halcyon.
Any rate, I will be in Honk Kong in about two weeks. Can't wait. I just hope I get to dive. If nothing else spend an *** load of money on dive gear lol. I'm looking for a Suunto SK-7, and some spring heels.

Mandarin Divers is in Aberdeen, which is nearish Stanley. Their shop was never open when I visited though!

Any idea what the packing/shipping weight of a Alu plate 30# Eclipse is?

 

[pacchill]

Aberdeen! Thats it, not Avalon. ok. LOL
GOODEATSFAN: When I got my Eclipse, it got the #40 with a SS BP. I paid 18USD. That was from Okinawa to my house near Tokyo. Inculed in the package was bolt snaps some hoses, and some Scouts too.
