I’m a big fan of the Cressi F1 – it’s insanely cheap yet offers superb value for money and also the rare feature of being a frameless dive mask.
There’s so much going for frameless dive masks – they’re compact, streamlined, easy to clear and exert less pressure on the wearers face.
Sure they’re not quite so durable but it doesn’t matter when they’re as cheap as the F1 and so far my own one has yet to show any signs of wear and tear.
This is also a really nice looking dive mask – especially so because for whatever colour you choose to have it in, the entire mask is that colour; as a posse to framed dive masks where the frame and skirt rarely match in colour.
It’s also the smallest, most compact dive mask out there – even by frameless mask standards,.
The only thing to bear in mind is that if you have a beard (like me) or a really big face it may leak a little – so if that is the case for you, best keep it as a space-saving backup mask!
