cressi sub minima

[moose_grunt]

What are the general feelings out there towards the cressi sub minima? I used to swim competitvely, so I really like the feel (and visibility) of goggles. I even keep a pair in my bag as a "retrieval mask" (for when I lose my mask). So the mimima looks quite appealing to me. I've been eyeing it for a week or so, and leisurepro has a good deal on it ($25). I'm tempted to just buy it and see, but I hate wasting money when an "I told you so" would have saved it. Anyone have any thoughts/comments on this mask?

Oh yeah, it would be used for mostly recreational diving (o/w and some cavern). No deep diving in the plans as of now.

I have 2 minima's for freediving - personally, they are one of the best masks for freediving out there - I would look at the Cressi Big Eyes if you want a low volume mask for tank diving. Much better peripheral vision than the minima.
