Right so your in the uk and already on Apex, your pretty much answering your own question.
Apeks I’ve always regarded highly and your already in the fold so wether your mechanically minded or not you already understand your regs and any quirks, don’t confuse yourself or the servicing issues, complex diving practises are made easier by uncomplicated gear arrangements.
Aside from that I’m not getting involved with colour coding, left lean, and all that argument as it’s not the question you asked, so enjoy your diving and try not to overcomplicate things
Personally I’m on Poseidon’s but if I’d started with Apex I’d still be on them, the Swedish stuff suits me as it can go in your mouth either way up and I service them myself.
(despite just about every authorised level 5 zen Poseidon badged technician being unable to)
