Wanted WTB Scubapro Catalogs

[Kupu]

I'm hoping to fill some gaps in a Scubapro US catalog collection. Non US Scubapro catalogs from 2000 and earlier are also of interest.
Condition is not important and I'm not in a position to pay premium prices for mint catalogs.
Used low priced catalogs would be ideal. With that said, any offers would be considered.

Here is the list of years that I am looking for. The 2000's are of low importance but I would still be interested at the right price.

1966, 1969
1979
1982, 1984, 1985, 1988
1991, 1997, 1998
2001, 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007

Thanks Angelo. Although I do not see a date on the BluTime catalog shared as 1979, I suspect it is not correctly labeled. My guess is the catalog is actually from 1974? Thoughts and suggestions are welcome, I'm trying to avoid mistakes in this collection.

As you mention in another thread, the US and EU timelines can be different, but the catalog graphics and format is a mirror image of the Scubapro 1974 US catalog. Also the certain products shown seem unlikely to be from 1979 lineup, even after taking into account the US vs EU timelines.
Two examples that make me suspicious that it is from 1979 are the Mark V still being sold with the 2 LP port turret and the Pilot is nowhere to be seen.

Effectively it appears to be postdated, it was certainly not 1979. In previous year catalog (1978) you already see the MK5 with the 4-ports turret and the Pilot, whilst in this mislabelled Italian 1979 catalogue the MK5 has just 2 ports, and the PVB regulator appears instead of the Pilot.
In the 1977 catalog, the Pilot was also already present, but the MK5 had yet the 2-ports turret.
So this is definitely not the 1979 Italian catalog, but something earlier, probably 1976 or even earlier. Your hypothesis about being 1974 is realistic. You should signal this to the Bluetime Scuba History web site...
And I suppose they will be happy to host on their web site other SP catalogs which they did not manage to find yet.

A good suggestion, a message has been sent regarding the possibly incorrectly labeled catalog.

I don't know if you are still looking but I have the following in new condition:
1983 - 3 catalogs; Part I, II, II
1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 +2002 InDepth Smart Microbubble Management accompanying catalog, 2003, 2005
I'm sure I have others I can check.

Oh, for what its worth, I also have some pretty cool UWATEC catalogs pre-Scubapro with very detailed information on their products, algorithms, and inner processors' pathways. I also have DRAGER Dive catalogs.

DM me if you are interested as I don't check threads often enough..

Btw, If you have the 1983 series you are already aware of one of the inner pages, but others here might enjoy it.

Yes, still looking and updating the WTB list as I find the catalogs.
DM sent.
