don't know the mask but here is a pic to help
This is just my opinion but I have found some of the four lens masks to have too large of volume which makes it harder to clear and brings the window further away from the face decreasing visibility. I started with a mask very much like this one. If I had to do over again I would have got a different one. Also the clear silicone can turn yellow with a lot of use, and increase glare. I think a low volume black silicone one or two window mask is the way to go at least for me.

Kind of funny this got brought up. I recently saw that movie on DVD and was wondering what type of mask that was as well. I thought it was the Sherwood Magnum EX at first (Sherwoods mask looks EXACTLY like it), but it turns out that the mask is an Oceanic Contour. The low profile lense and great seal the Sherwood provides is exactly what I was looking for. I cannot find the Oceanic mask anywhere on the Internet or at dive shops.

Of course he does..... MOF
Turns out clear silicon mostly turns yellow from storage with any black rubber items... just as your wetsuit. I've seen some 20 year old clear silicon that was still perfectly clear, and I've seen clear silicon that yellowed within 6 months of being stored in a bag with a wetsuit's hood and booties.kgdiver:
Learned my lesson.
I still prefer the black skirts now, since I don't have to worry about it at all.Similar threads
