Can anyone make recommendations for Masks with large nose pockets to accommodate divers with very large noses (especially at the top portion of the nose, the nose bridge) please?

Hopefully, a known brand. Please give me links.

Take a look at the Tusa Freedom HD. I have a regular nose, and there's lots of space at the bridge.
 
I have a pretty big nose and I second the Tusa Freedom HD...most comfortable mask I have used.
Had issues previously with other masks (ususally junky rentals on vacation snorkling) pinching the bridge or pushing on the tip of my nose, not so with the Tusa.
 
Doubt you will like this one but it's the model I have been using for 40+ years. I totally love it.

Aqua Lung Wraparound Mask, Black

Best Mask EVER!! Ok...best mask for me ever. It fits my face better than any other mask I have tried. I have two spares in storage because I fear one day they may no longer be made. Mine still have the "US Divers" branding on the skirt.

Have a look at the Aqualung Atlantis. I know, it is "old school" but I recently just fitted one to a gentleman who could not get a comfortable fit with any other mask. He also said he felt it sealed to his face better than any other mask.

I know this thread is old,but I still found it useful.
Just to add a bit though,
I have a wide bridge nose and tried dozens of masks until I settled on the Cressi BigEyes. Superb mask and not a drop enters the mask. No pressing on the bridge or tip of the nose. At depth it does press as with all masks but becomes more comfortable when you equalise.
Just my two penneth worth.

Hi Silver diver,

I found this comment very useful during my search for a mask. I have been looking for ages for a mask that fits my nose. I was just wondering if you are talking about the cressi big eyes or cressi big eyes evolution? There is a bit of a price difference and would like to know which on you are referring too. The advice is greatly appreciated.
