Voit Skindiver fins (from Montgomery Wards)
Voit round mask (from Montgomery Wards)
Voit wetsuit (long gone and outgrown)
BC, did not have or need a stink'n BC because there was no such thing
1973 USD kit:
USD Mistral or Conshelf regulators
USD Rocket Fins
USD Wetsuit
USD SPG
USD depth gauge
USD horse collar BC or USD CO2 vest (replaced now with a Seatec horse collar)
USD speargun
USD mask
USD J snorkel
USD backpack
DOXA watch
Voit 1968 rig:
Voit single stage double hose regulator
Voit Skindiver fins
Voit mask
Voit J snorkel
Voit depth gauge
Voit spg
Voit CO2 float
Voit Snugpack
Parkway wetsuit
Voit 82 rig:
Voit MRII regulators
Voit masks
Voit UDT fins
Voit Snugpack
Voit depth and spg
My 80s rig:
Tekna T2100 regulators
Seatec wing and plate
Scubapro Jet Fins
Dacor mask
Tekna depth and SPG
Scubapro rig:
Scubapro 109 set
Scubapro B&G spg
Scubapro 0-500 depth guage
Scubapro Jetfins
Scubapro Shotgun snorkel
Scubapro Frameless mask
Scubapro wetsuit
Scubapro wing (1978ish) on Scubapro plate or Oxy 18/30 on Freedom Plate
My current rig, as of now:
Phoenix Royal Aqua Master High Performance Regulator or AL Titan XL regulator set
Scubapro Jetfins or Mares Avanti Quattro fins
Atomic Frameless mask
Atomic snorkel
Citizen Ecozilla watch or Seiko 007
Highland B&G spg
Aeris nitrox computer
Bare wetsuit 5/3 or 3/2 or various Bare/Body Glove neoprene goods
Oxy 18 on a Oxy ultralight plate or Oxy 30 on a Freedom Plate
And a whole bunch of other stuff. Some old, some new, some in-between, little of this and a little of that. Over time I have become more eclectic and less likely to source from one brand. Nowadays I like Atomic, AL, Scubapro, Oxycheq and Mares for fins, masks etc. In the 60s an 70s it was very common to see divers fully kitted in a single brand or very nearly so, nowadays, you can fully outfit from AL or Scubapro but people do tend to mix and match more though I do think that a full outfit of Scubapro is kinda snazzy, maybe, dunno. It used to be to die for.

Interesting thing I observed while going through my dive kits - No one can claim I am sponsored by one brand
In my two combined Bags I have
Scubapro (+UWATEC)
Sherwoods
Hogs
Oxycheq
Mares
Frog
Dive Rite
