My old trusted, Cousteau Micra is gone and I need a new reg. I want the same reg I had. It performed really well at all dpths and never gave me a day fo trouble. I had really great air consumption using it and I've noticed a real difference on other regs. The trouble is, they don't make it anymore.
I've searched and searched for a dive shop with on old, dusty box at the back of it's stockroom. No go. All I can find is the new Micra, which comes with a Titan first stage. I've used that reg and I hate it.
Is there any reason not to buy a used Cousteau? I know that not everyone takes good care of thier reg as I did with mine. But if I buy one used and then take it in for service, is there any reason not to believe that it will be as safe and reliable as my old reg?
