Hello all

I am a very large face and have found no masks in my local dive shops that fit me . The scuba pro Crytal Vu is what i have been using, and it sort of works. However I am hoping that someone may have any updated suggestions

Have you tried the Hollis M1?
 
I did. but its been a few years. Have they gotten wider?
No. I wouldn't imagine they have. If you live anywhere near NYC I would recommend going to Leisurepro / Scuba.com. I'm pretty sure they have every mask ever made in stock you can try on.
Also, The new ScubaPro D-mask comes in like 3 sizes, I think.
What about one of those old school oval jobbies?

I actually live in Dubai for the last few years , But home is NY. LOL, re the Oval mask. that would be great! , the problem isn't necessarily the lens but the seal

i think those tend to be of a larger size. Maybe try different silicone compounds. some are grippier / more flappy than others.
 
Halcyon H-view
I've owned Tusa HD and Scubapro Frameless in the past. tried a bunch of other masks in the past years. H-view for me is the best.
 
I’ve got a big gourd and this has worked flawlessly for me. I think the same mask is sold under several brand names but the price is right.
