New mask - Cressi Calibro - Experiences?

[Tim B.]

Hello dear fellow hypercapnians!

While researching prices for the Cressi nano, which has been evading me in my favorited color combination of black skirt and green frame for weeks now, I stumbled across this new piece of minimal volume mask technology: behold the Cressi Calibro! https://www.cressi.com/catalogue/Details.asp?id=1155

It is advertised as the next generation of the nano.
Details include that the strap is now attached to the frame and the miraculous IDF (INTEGRATED DUAL FRAME TECHNOLOGY) is one of the key innovatives.

Prices and availability vary wildly and I haven't found any reviews as of yet.
Has anyone had the opportunity to get a closer look at that wonderfully refined but simple looking mask and would like to share his or her impressions with the rest of us?

Kind regards
Tim

It looks like a nice mask and fairly similar to the IST Hunter which I have, except that the strap is attached directly to the frame which is a feature I feel works well. I find that if the strap is attached to the skirt, depending were and how it is attached, it can compromise the seal when using a snorkel. I have always liked cressi gear, their master frog fins are great!

I'm in the market for a new pair, love the Nanos, but have the mirrored which I think darkens things a bit to much and as much as I love them the wife love them more sooo... gotta get a new pair anyways.

Considering getting one, but they only have green and black on scubastore at the moment... I really like my Nano and along with the Micromask it fits my wife, daughter and me so we always bring one as a spare on travels.
