Was looking around and found this thread. Thought I was pop in. Been diving for a couple years but never owned a mask. I've tried many rentals looking for one that was comfortable but to no avail.

The problem is that I have protruding brow (my kids call it the neandrathal brow). When I get to depth the mask frame presses against it and it's quite painful over time. Usually very sore after a dive. Anyway...i was on a dive last year while on a cruise and I mentioned it to another diver who used told me about frameless masks (don't remember which kind he had). He let me try it on and it was very comfortable.

When I got home I started looking around and settled on a Cressi F1. Hey, what can I say, I'm cheap. I've now had 10 dives with it and am very pleased. No pain, very comfortable, no leaks, no fogging. I'm a happy camper.
