I lucked into a matching pair of very lightly used Mk5 Balanced Adjustable regs. I had them serviced and upgraded the guts to current parts (S wing poppet etc). They are holding 145psi and 150psi respectively.
They come with SP consoles - one depth gauge is missing and the other is flooded but the vintage SPGs look great. I would ditch the rubber boots and dive with the original SPG.
Usual signs of wear but all rubber and chrome is in great shape. The hoses are older but seem good, albeit a little stiff. Mouthpieces were trash and i didn't put new ones on as that's a personal choice. I have some generics if needed. I replaced one of the yoke retainers that was a little worn. See pic of the new one.
I am very tempted to keep them as i love the look but i already have a set of these and plenty of other regs so i should to pass them along to a person or people who would will use them.
$250 per set plus $15 for flat rate shipping in the 48.
Service on these costs about $100 labor and $60 in parts (not including the upgrades) so buyer would get regs for less than $100/set.
