I ran across a DAAM with a can stamped for both rectangular and round labels. First one I've seen personally.

Yeah, it was just the first one I had run across. It's sitting in a salt x bath right now, looking prettier by the minute.

I found the same thing when I was replacing the old round aquamaster decal with a new one from Bryan. I have read multiple times on the forum that USD was good at using any parts that they had to produce new items. Seems smart to me.

I might add to this....When you run across something you think is unusual about a piece of gear
POST IT.....May turn out to be common like this one but IT MAY NOT....The only stupid question is the one we don't ask. There is still a lot of gear out there that has been forgotten for years and when it sees the light of day again I'd like to see and know about it

I have a Royal Aqua Master that is stamped for both labels. I only have a round label, there is no square brass label on the reg.
For those regs that have both labels, do any of the serial numbers match?

Mine didn't. It did have a lot of adhesive on the cans, so I assume that there was a round label glued on at some point.
The rarest part of my reg is that is was a gift from the dive shop owner. I wandered into his shop this weekend while doing some hiking in the area, and we got to talking about vintage gear. He had a few double hose regs on display, including a Loosco Dive-Safe in excellent condition.
Near the Loosco was that DAAM, sitting in a corner. He picked it up, handed it to me and said "Merry Christmas." I think I have a new favorite dive shop!

To forestall that, I don't think he's interested in selling it

I'll be talking to him later, so if he is looking to put anything up for sale, I'll post it in the "For Sale" section.
