just took my brand new halcyon bp and wing on its first dive trip. dove in saltwater and rinsed with a hose afterwards. the next day there was some rust on the inside of the harness buckle and also some light rust on a couple of the triglides that keep the d-rings in place. i thought this was stainless steel. they certainly charge stainless if not platinum prices. has anyone experienced the same problem? my old bc, an oceanic chute, has never had the faintest trace of rust on any of the hardware in years of diving. neither has the buckle of my weight belt which i often do not even rinse.
