VADER

One lens with no centre frame, for a bright, broad view

VADER is GULL's flagship single-lens mask, its body drawn entirely in curves. With no centre frame splitting the lens, what your left and right eyes see overlaps into one bright, broad view. A curled-lip skirt with soft dampers eases pressure for extra comfort. GULL calls it ideal for scuba and skin diving, and says VADER has remained a favourite among divers.

Highlights

No centre frame

With no centre frame splitting the lens, the views of your right and left eyes overlap. You get a bright, broad field of view and feel less closed in, made for dives where field of view matters.

UV420 AR amber or Super Clear lens

The amber UV420 CUT AR lens blocks UV and HEV light to help protect the lutein in your eyes and raises contrast underwater; its AR coating lets about 95% of light through, against about 92% for a conventional lens. The Clear model uses Super Clear glass, refined to let the most light through, with fewer skirt reflections on the lens.

Curled-lip skirt with soft damper

The skirt and strap clip are one piece for firm but gentle contact: pull the strap and it seals without leaving much of a mark, while soft dampers ease pressure on the cheekbones.

Low volume: 140cc

The lens sits close to your eyes, and the low volume widens the single-lens view further: 100° vertical and 113° horizontal in GULL's catalogue. A 10° lens tilt keeps your view down to chest level, where most diving tasks happen. Weight: 246 g.

Who it is for

Great for
  • Divers who want a bright, broad view with no centre frame in the way
  • Divers who want to choose their lens: UV420 AR amber or Super Clear
  • Scuba and skin divers: GULL calls it ideal for both
Maybe not for
  • Smaller faces: GULL notes VADER may feel slightly large, and made the smaller VADER fanette for smaller faces
  • Divers after GULL's widest view: look at LUVOS, 105° vertical and 118° horizontal (VADER: 100° and 113°)

FAQ

Amber or Super Clear lens: what is the difference?

Every coloured frame, on black or white silicone, comes with the amber UV420 CUT AR lens for UV/HEV protection and extra contrast. The Clear model (clear silicone) has the Super Clear lens for maximum clarity and fewer skirt reflections on the lens.

VADER or VADER fanette: which one fits me?

GULL notes that divers with smaller faces may find VADER slightly large, so it made VADER fanette smaller overall. VADER: 140cc, 246 g, 100° vertical and 113° horizontal view. VADER fanette: 125cc, 223 g, 94° and 108°, with a skirt that reaches past the cheekbones. Not sure which fits? Ask us on LINE before you order.

How does VADER compare with LUVOS?

Both are GULL single-lens masks. VADER: 140cc, 246 g, a 100° × 113° view, amber UV420 AR or Super Clear lens. LUVOS: 170cc, 266 g, a 105° × 118° view and a clear UV380 AR IR lens; GULL calls it the widest-view single-lens mask it has made.

Why does the lens look blue in the photos?

GULL notes the lens is actually amber (light yellow); its reflective coating makes it look blue in photos.

Is it OK for beginners?

GULL names no skill level for VADER and calls it ideal for scuba and skin diving. If you are new, the drain skirt helps push water out when you clear the mask, and the DX Spec buckle adjusts one-handed, even in thick gloves. Not sure it suits your face? Ask us on LINE before you order.

Can I fit prescription lenses?

GULL offers order-made prescription lenses for a wide range of its masks and shows VADER among its examples. Ask us on LINE before you order.
