Hi Folks,
I purchased a Genesis analog pressure gauge assembly set with my Sherwood regulator not too long ago. The middle gauge (pressure) came with a tiny bubble, the seller told me that it was not unusual, so I just took it. After only 1 dive, the bubble had expanded 5-10x in size. I brought it back & they swapped it out w/ a bubble-less one. Now, 1 dive later, this new Genesis pressure gauge has mysteriously developed a new bubble! I brought it back to the shop again and another clerk showed me 4 brand new Genesis pressure gauges (all in wraps, not defective or returned merchandise) - all with relatively large bubbles present! He told me that they are all like that. Is this some kinda engineering flaw? Is there a recall? I feel bad for my local dive shop if I make them keep swapping gauges for me. At the same time, having a gauge w/ bubble inside can be distracting underwater.
What do you suggest me do?
Edward
