After a long journey, I decided to buy the BCD from the local diving shop accross the corner
I know there are several options (BWP, traditional jacket, travel jacket, hybrid, etc. etc.)
After considering all the options I narrowed the choice between only 3 options:

1) MARES PRIME JACKET € 169,90
2) MARES PRIME JACKET+weights bags MRS PLUS € 179,00
3) SCUBAPRO T-ONE € 199,50

There are also new versions of the same 2 BCDs, but unless I am mistaken the changes are not really relevant
Scubapro T-One made me a good impression, it seems light but with a good feeling on the shoulders
Mares Prime Jacket is similar, and cheaper

What would you suggest, sticking to these 2 options?
Thanks
 
Eventually I bought Scubapro X-one, the upgraded model, at 229 eur
X-one has metal d-rings and other details that drove me to buying this one
