Tilos frameless mask

Just thought someone may be interested to know that these masks are just awesome! This is the most comfortable, best sealing, widest vision mask I've tried yet. For the price, you can't go wrong. I even tried one of the other brands that were in the $100 price range and these were every bit as nice in my opinion. With your ST discount, it's around $40.00.

It looks nice...but I wonder if they could do an Rx lens for me. I am thinking that would be the only drawback for me.

The tilos frameless is a great mask for the price, if i remember correctly Scuba Diving Magazine just did a review on various frameless masks and the tilos had the best vision next to the atomic, and its about 1/3 of the cost.

Yes, it's 1/3 the price of the Atomic, and I can't imagine the quality being any less. It is so comfy you don't hardly notice it's there. Also, you barely tilt your head forward and you can see everything at waist level. The hubby and I both got one, and we compared to all the other masks we've "collected", and it wins out, no contest.

A good custom place can do it by bonding lenses onto the glass. Personally I hate the way that looks, so I stick to two-lens masks.

PrescriptionDiveMasks.com

I have several Tilos masks, and the quality is as good as any of the bigger, more familiar players... but the cost is dramatically less.

I dive inexpensive black skirted 2 lens masks from Trident....I wear glasses so my solution is off the shelf diopter lens found at LDS. For under $100 I have a great fitting mask(s) that don't cost an arm-leg.

At that cheap price and given its excellent performance, this mask is well worth having as a primary mask or a spare if the splendive still works for you after trying the Tilos Excel.

On another post I failed to mention that the Excel has a softer skirt than that of the Atomic frameless. Add to that the flat tech black of the outer surface and the Excel just looks more and more like a steal at its current price($35.95 from another authorized site-ScubaToys matched this price for me).
