I lost a pair of my $2 Orange gardening gloves that I put in my BC pouch until I'm in the water. No big loss they are cheap and effective. They help my dive buddy keep an eye on me better than a pair of Black dive gloves that cost an Arm and a Leg. Oh.....I also lost my mind and when ever I talk about diving I get real excited! I guess it would be another chance for me to find my mind again!!!! :-)
 
Lost lots of air from my octo when I first started diving, particularly on deep wreck dives in currents where quick descents are necessary - :D

Lost a Mares mask when I got lost at sea, I fiddled with my kit a couple of times and it went missing at some point, but I didn't realise much later.

(Found snorkels, a baseball cap, in a marina I found a TV, a tarp and a vase and lots of garbage)

Don't plan on loosing anything in the future, just buying new kit at the moment!
 
sunglasses and a cheap dive watch from walmart
 
I've lost a few things...

- a cheapo dive knife.
- a waterproof watch.
- two pairs of sunglasses, one of them Raybans
- a divebuddy afflicted with severe ADD (oh, look! something shiny!!)
(yes it was the last time we dove together)

And I had a kiss stolen from me underwater. I didn't object too strenuously.
 
1x dive knife first time out snorkelling :( (nice knife too -- cheap but good).

I have marked all my gear now to make it easier to see & added a lanyard to an even cheaper knife. I noticed that some knives only latch properly on one side (although they make a click sound the wrong way round too ... may be that's what happened?).
 
I lost my watch diving today. I had it on when I went in today and then nada when I took off my gloves. Sucks, it was one the wife gave me a couple of months ago. (Waa waa I want my milk and cookies)
 
I am also lucky I have yet to loose anything...but I was on a dive trip in Key West and one of the other divers lost a $1000 underwater video camera the first time he ever used it....the divemaster and instructors on the boat were going back there the next morning...:)..never found out if they found it or they never said anything ...lol
 
Lost.. a fin<was holding it in my hand on a river dive gearing up and then it was gone>... a knife.. a small pelican light....a cheep goody bag<fell outta my BC> and my mind....
 
I'm loosing my mind wanting to get wet again
 
I didn't lose anything, but I did meet a man who was married only two weeks before who lost his wedding ring in 30 feet of water on Virgin Gorda, B.V.I's at Devil's Harbor. So if any of you find it post it on here and I will find their address!
