I thought it was similar to one of Cousteau's hard shell tank enclosures.

Nah the styling and colour is later than 1972, who can we ask
 
I kick myself for not buying one at a Marine Flea Market years back for under $100. Of course I would have never really used it, but it would have gone great with my At-Pac Ferring. A lot more robust than the At-Pac but, you were stuck with the unit, couldn't ditch the shell nor could it accommodate doubles.

Bit of history, if you notice it was originally called the Nautilus, but shortly thereafter it was renamed the "Scubasystem", from what I read, Dacor had already registered then name Nautilus for their hard shell back inflation unit and SP had to change the name.
 
the listing is still up, so @crzyfish may not have actually bought it. not sure someone would pay 250 for one either.
Yeah didn’t pay attention to the link. Thanks for the heads up. I’d buy it for $100 but not $250
