Hello, new newbie
Hello everyone, My names Danny from South Essex.

A new diver, only just passed my OW...................and dreaming of being back in those beautiful blue seas of Mexico.

Looking at buying my on gear, right the first time if lucky. Loving all the info on here.

Be lucky.

Welcome , but the dark salty waters off the UK coast are just as exciting , if not better.

Ask any of the old / bold experienced divers here and i'm sure they will help,,,, DON'T go rushing to the shop and waste ya dollars without asking first.

Hello Danny and welcome. As has already been said don't rush into buying your new gear. If at all possible try before you buy.

You're gonna need a rebreather or two, at least two VR3's, a drysuit, and a compressor.

You're gonna have to sell a kidney and a lung to afford them, but you will bypass so much "transitional" kit it will probably save you money in the long run. If you have kids, I'd suggest you can get more than you think for them on the european market.

Welcome to poverty, and YD

Hi Danny
Prepare for any spare space you have at home to be taken up with dive kit in direct proportion to large spaces appearing in your bank account.
