Anyone Actually have an ATX Apeks?

I have not tried it out yet.

Interesting??? I wonder what the CTX100 is? Seeing as how the site reflects that the TX100 is the only unit they are not changing, possibly the other version of the ATX200????

Hummmm???? I will give them a call

I thought I read on another thread awhile back that SeaQuest was not interested in offering the ATX-100 here in the US. Check the Seaquest link below to see which models they distribute in the US. I would imagine though that you can probably get the other models that Sea Quest doesn't distribute as grey market gear through LP and such.

received my "official reply today"

The CTX line IS INDEED THE SAME AS THE ATX Line.. only difference is that the ATX200 has a NEW First Stage unique to itself... ALL CTX lines will be replaced by the ATX name by the end of the year. CTX are only avail in GERMANY..

So CTX50 = ATX50

and so on....

When you get your LP bought regs serviced, do you get stuck with the parts bill.

I work at a dive shop, and we are an authorized Aqua Lung/SeaQuest dealer, and it is a sure giveaway that somebody bought their reg online with no warranty when they bring us a ctx (ctx is sold in Europe), and we bill them the parts, which can be very expensive.

So are local dive shops that overcharge!

scuba_adventurer, are you saying that the dive shop you work at DELIBERATELY overcharges for parts ("...and we bill them the parts, which can be very expensive...") if you figure out someone has bought their equipment online???

BTW, I notice this is your first post, so welcome to the forum. What shop do you work at again???
