Haigh & Hastings M2 Diver First Impression Video With Review

In the world of micro-divers there is no shortage of competition, and just when I think that I know all of them out there, another brand pops up.

This time it is Haigh & Hastings and their M2 Diver. Haigh & Hastings headquarters is located in Perth, Australia.  Now I could be wrong, but unlike a lot of micro brands these days, they did not do a preorder, and just went into production and released them when they were ready. Coming in at a base price of just about $501.00 USD, it is a rugged, tool style diver, and they do have some options for different strap upgrades and an array of different colors.

In the video, I give you my first impressions of the M2 diver, and after having it for a few weeks I can say while at first I had my doubts,  I have to admit…the M2 Diver has really grown on me.
