What kind of durability can I expect from the Mares Prime BCD? I’ve heard mixed things about the lifespan of Mares gear.
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for sharing your concerns about the durability of the Mares Prime BCD. At our store, we’ve had numerous customers enjoy their Prime BCDs for extended periods without issues. That being said, the lifespan of any BCD ultimately depends on how well it’s maintained and used. Mares gear is known for its high-quality materials and craftsmanship, which can contribute to its durability. If you’re concerned about the longevity of the Mares Prime BCD, I recommend checking out our blog on BCD maintenance tips. Additionally, our customer service team is always here to help with any questions or concerns you may have.

How much cooler is the over-size zipper compared to a standard zipper? I’ve used both and the difference is night and day
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Mares Prime BCD, Jayce. We’re glad to hear that you’ve appreciated the over-size zipper on this BCD. The oversized zipper on the Prime BCD is indeed a notable feature, providing easier entry and exit from the BCD, which can be especially helpful for divers who are wearing other gear underneath. We’ll make sure to pass on your feedback to our design team! Have you had a chance to try out the MRS Plus weight system with your Prime BCD?
Jasmine Kho –
Could you explain the difference between the Mares Prime BCD and other beginner-friendly BCD?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for reaching out, Jasmine! The Mares Prime BCD is a fantastic choice for beginners. One key difference between the Prime and other beginner-friendly BCDs is its comfort and style features. The Prime is designed with a sleek and ergonomic design that makes it comfortable to wear for extended periods. Additionally, it has a more streamlined look that many divers find appealing. Another significant difference is the option to upgrade to the MRS Plus weight system, which provides more flexibility and customization for your diving needs. While other beginner-friendly BCDs may not offer these features, the Prime provides a great balance of comfort, style, and versatility. If you have any more questions or would like to know more about our BCDs, feel free to ask! -Rachel

Is the Mares Prime BCD compatible with a 7mm wetsuit?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for reaching out to us about the compatibility of the Mares Prime BCD with a 7mm wetsuit. After reviewing our product information, we recommend using this BCD with a 5mm or thicker wetsuit for optimal performance and comfort. However, it’s ultimately up to personal preference and what feels most comfortable for you. We encourage you to consult with a scuba diving professional if you’re still unsure.
Cecilia Tan –
As a beginner Scuba diver, I was pleasantly surprised with how comfortable this BCD felt on me. I’ve used it for a few dives now and it’s been a game-changer in terms of flexibility and ease of use. I love how customizable it is, especially with the MRS Plus weight system. It’s a great option for those starting out or upgrading from a basic BCD.
Ara Rizal –
Is the price for this BCD worth it? What factors do you think contribute to the premium price?

I’ve been diving with the Mares Prime BCD for months now, and it’s hands down the best BCD I’ve ever used. The comfort, the style, the value – it’s all top-notch. You won’t go wrong with this purchase!
Rizqina Yuzairi –
What alternative to the Prime BCD would you recommend for a particular skill level, please? In particular weighty divers?
Junhao Lo –
Thank you for reaching out, Rizqina Yuzairi! The Mares Max-Junior BCD is another excellent option for those who are at the same skill level or even advanced. However, for weighty divers, I would recommend the Mares Rover BCD. This model has more flexibility and comfort. It is also easier to breathe, and offers various adjustments that assist in the right balance and fitting, which, as a heavy diver, is really important. If you want more information, please feel free to ask! And if you have any experiences with either of these products or have any questions, kindly let me know!

I wish this BCD was even more durable. Despite that, I do enjoy the comfort it provides and how customizable it is. I’ve managed to extend its lifespan with proper maintenance, but if you take it for granted, it might not last long.
Malvika Moorthy –
Would using this Prime BCD be suitable for my size and kind of suit? There is no user feedback given regarding divers with certain S/XL etc physical attributes?

Akif Kamal –
I’ve tried a few BCDs in the past but none of them compared to this Prime. The material is top-notch, and the design makes it incredibly easy to use. My only gripe would be that it does run a bit hot during long dives, so be prepared for that.
Leanne Lee –
I’ve been using the Mares Prime BCD for several dives in the Caribbean, and I have to say it’s been a game-changer for me. The comfort and flexibility are unparalleled, and the value for the price is unbeatable. Highly recommended to any diver! One minor quibble, the buckles could be a bit easier to operate, but that’s a tiny thing.
Kaitlyn Tan –
I’ve had the Mares Prime BCD for a few weeks now, and I’m so impressed with its comfort and style! The construction feels durable and well-made, and the weight system is a fantastic feature – wish I had gotten this one sooner! Definitely would recommend!
