I found a fairly modern scubapro regulator in brass. No Chrome?

[Diverdon]

I was told this regulator was an engineer's sample, or some sort of prototype. I'm wondering if anyone has something like this in their collection? And where they got theirs.
It looks to me like a mark 20 or a mark 25. I'm not familiar enough with the newer regulators.. I myself use a mark 10 Balanced Adjustable and just love it.

Mk20 judging by the black trim ring but could be an early 25, assume it’s an anniversary model but don’t know for sure.

50th Anniversary Mk25 Model? Gold colored chrome plating.

Anniversary model. That makes sense. Thanks! It breathes well, BTW. Just got done diving it while I'm down here in Gilboa.

Don, you might contact Scubapro and see whether it is actual gold plating. That was done by U.S. Divers Company with the Gold Aquamaster (or maybe it was a gold Royal Aquamaster). If so, you may wish not to dive it much.

Sounds good, John. I didn't see much on flyaway, so I'll keep researching it. I knew about the US Divers gold plating practice but never heard about Scubapro doing that. Here's to wishing

Look here:
Scubapro Erogatore MK10 G250 Gold Edizione Limitata Oro | eBay
It appears to be a nice collector's item!

Thanks for that link! I did see that as eBay was one of my first searches. There's also a mk25 g600 on there but those were the only two I found.
Mine isn't all shiny though. More of a brushed brass looking finish.

That's quite a mask you have there!

Don,

I just pulled my Scubapor 50 Years catalog out, and yours is indeed the S600 Gold version of this regulator. Scubapro stated:

MK25/S600 Gold MSRP $ 1099

This system is reminiscent of the Mk10/G250 gold-plated version produced in 1991. However this time it's been treated with a special high tech gold color coating that will not wear away like 25K gold, so you can enjoy years of exceptional diving.

I'll scan the page for you later today.

PS, that quote, and price, is for S600 Gold second stage teamed with the Mk25 Gold first stage.

PS1, I have that tri-window Dacor mask too.
