US Divers DHR - PhotoLabels Timeline

[CG-45.com]

Hello all,
I'd like to share these "photolabels" timeline of US Divers regulators (and some that they authorized its production or its re-labeled). I used informations from the Phil's book (Emile Gagnan and the "Aqua-Lung" - Part 1), U.S. Divers timeline (Bryan) and some informations of the site VintageScubaSupply.

I hope that helps all lovers of the double hose regulators in the identification of the US Divers regulators and when they were produced.
If you find any mistakes please let me know!

I would not know about mistakes, but the photo-labels timeline looks like a huge amount of work, and a lot of information in one place. Great job! Thank you for sharing.

We should somehow mark this thread for reference, as people are always asking what year their regulator was made... maybe I will move this to the instruction section.

Nice work Adair!

Adair, very nice work, and I even see the DX Overpressure Breathing regulator's nameplate!

On the Blue Broxton's circa 1954: what do they mean by "smooth horns" and "ridged horns"?

[SeaRat]

Nemo,

I think the smooth horns are like my Broxton Green Label Aqua-Lung; it has no ridge at all and is simply a tube. The horns with ridges are the ones with the round ring that is a "ridge" at the end of the horn.

PS, I just looked on Facebook, and your DA Aqua-Lung has no ridge, it is smooth.
