On my first night dive I lost a Cartier gold ring I'd had for 25 years. I had only taken it off once or twice in all that time so I didn't think of doing so before diving...
 
Lost some weight in sweat when getting into a 5mm wetsuit in 88 degrees and then lugging the tanks back and forth.
Lost my shears when the carabiner uncliped, but looked down and recovered it.
 
1. Trident lobster bag, containing a tertiary back up light.
2. Trident 75# lift bag on the Normannia (darn thing had my name on it real big letters, and was negative, I know one of you found it, so bring it back!)

That is it, lots of diving over 17 years lost that stuff. Not too bad?
 
I've lost a couple of knives, a weight belt I dropped getting on the boat once, but the most important thing I ever lost was any chance at a normal life. I have been hoplessly hooked since that first dive a long long time ago.
 
I lost my heart underwater. Does that count? Other then that all my kit is firmly attached to my person!!! :scubadive
 
I lost a weight pouch at Gilboa! Still haven't gotten it back. Dang it! It's one I don't think that I can replace...

Well, it depends how you lost it... Did you fall in love with diving, with your buddy or with a slick eel? :)
