NEX Underwater Products Hopkins Deep Collection

Cold Water Doesn’t Care How Good Your Regulator Was in the Tropics.

When the water gets colder and the dives get more demanding, your regulator becomes one piece of equipment you absolutely do not want to second-guess.

Meet the NEX Underwater Products Hopkins Deep Collection—a complete primary-and-octo regulator setup built around the environmentally sealed Monterey First Stage, paired with the Balanced Adjustable 2.0 Primary Second Stage and a lightweight 2.0 Unbalanced Octopus.

This isn't the regulator collection for someone whose dive plans end when the water gets chilly.

This is the setup for the diver who keeps going.

Built Around the Environmentally Sealed Monterey

At the heart of Hopkins Deep is the award-winning NEX Monterey First Stage, equipped with an environmental seal for additional protection in demanding diving conditions.

The environmental seal isolates the first-stage mechanism from the surrounding water, helping protect internal components from direct exposure to salt water, sediment, and contaminants while creating an over-balanced configuration.

For divers heading into colder water, deeper dives, or more challenging environments, that's exactly where you want the Hopkins Deep story to begin:

Protect the first stage. Maintain performance. Keep breathing.

Balanced. Adjustable. Yours.

Hopkins Deep pairs the Monterey with the NEX Balanced Adjustable 2.0 Primary Second Stage.

The balanced design delivers smooth, comfortable breathing performance, while the diver-adjustable control lets you fine-tune the second stage to your preference.

Conditions change?

Turn the knob.

Your breathing preference changes?

Turn the knob.

Instead of accepting one fixed breathing characteristic, you have control over how your primary second stage responds.

When you're investing in a regulator designed for more demanding diving, that's the kind of control you'll appreciate long after you've forgotten what you paid for it.

And Yes, Your Octo Is Included.

A regulator collection isn't complete without an alternate air source.

Hopkins Deep includes the NEX 2.0 Unbalanced Octopus, giving you a complete first-stage, primary, and octo configuration in one package.

No buying the regulator and discovering afterward that you still need to build out the rest of the system.

Hopkins Deep arrives as a collection because that's exactly how you'll use it.

DIN or Yoke? Your Choice.

Different divers. Different cylinders. Different preferences.

Choose your Hopkins Deep Collection in either:

DIN — for divers who prefer a threaded regulator-to-cylinder connection.

Yoke — for divers who prefer the traditional clamp-style connection commonly encountered throughout recreational diving.

You choose the configuration that fits your diving.

Now Make It Look Like Yours.

Here's where Hopkins Deep gets considerably more interesting.

Your primary second stage and octopus are customizable, so your regulator doesn't have to look like every other black-and-yellow setup hanging on the dive boat.

Primary Housing

Choose Blue, Black, White, Yellow, Pink, or Red

Primary Purge Cover

Choose Black, Pink, White, Blue, Red, or Yellow

Octo Housing

Match your primary and octo.

Make them contrast.

Coordinate them with the rest of your equipment.

Or create something nobody else on the boat would have thought to order.

Serious cold-water equipment doesn't have to be boring.

Who Is Hopkins Deep For?

Cold-Water Divers
If colder water isn't enough to keep you on the boat, Hopkins Deep gives you an environmentally sealed Monterey platform designed with those more demanding conditions in mind.

Divers Moving Beyond Basic Equipment
You've learned enough to know that first-stage design, environmental protection, balanced breathing, and adjustability actually matter.

Divers Who Want a Complete Setup
Primary and octo are already here. Choose your connection and colors and build your configuration.

Divers Who Refuse to Buy Boring Gear
Six housing colors. Six purge-cover colors for both the primary and octo. Enough said.

Warm-Water Regulators Have Their Place.

So does Hopkins Deep.

If virtually every dive you make involves tropical water and a swimsuit, NEX has simpler configurations that may be exactly what you need.

But if your diving takes you somewhere colder—or you're buying equipment because you don't want your regulator to dictate where your diving stops—Hopkins Deep deserves a much closer look.

Because eventually the question isn't:

“What's the least regulator I can get away with?”

It's:

“Where do I want to be able to dive next?”

Hopkins Deep was built for the second question.
