Two distinct “breather,” or re-breather, props were created for Thunderball. 

The first was a hero version designed for close-up shots, used by Sean Connery and held in his mouth during the film’s iconic underwater sequences. The second was a slightly scaled-down version, engineered to fit inside the cigar tube that conceals the device as part of the story.

Both versions were produced by the EON prop department at Pinewood Studios. They combined purpose-made machined components with carefully selected everyday items, most notably miniature gas canisters adapted from a popular brand of soda siphon. These siphons were a familiar household item in Britain during the 1960s, before the widespread adoption of pre-packaged soft drinks.

The Replica
Factory Entertainment’s replica was developed through close study of surviving original props held in the EON archives, along with period blueprints and production drawings. The central body of the replica is precision-machined from solid brass, while the canisters are cast in a heavyweight alloy.

To complete the presentation, a custom cigar tube—machined from durable aluminum—is included, allowing you to replicate the ingenious concealment method seen on screen. The replica is completed with a display stand, acrylic cover and numbered limited edition metal plaque.

Also included is a Certificate of Authenticity booklet.

No show but stays on
Size: Medium, Color: (014) Halo Gray / Halo Gray / Castlerock
I wear these socks daily. They truly don’t show with my workout shoes or with hey dudes. But the best thing about them is that they actually stay on your foot. I work out hard and I don’t ever have to pull them up. I do wish they were just a little bit thicker than they are, but they are definitely a product I will buy again.

Post-COVID Sock Hunt: Finally a Win
Size: Medium, Color: (001) Black / Black / White
Ever since COVID, I haven’t been able to find a pair of socks that hold up for more than a few months. Brands like UA, Adidas, and others seem to have cut corners—likely in response to inflation—by downgrading materials and labor rather than raising prices. The result? Socks that wear thin, rip easily, or lose shape fast. These, however, have been a pleasant surprise. I’ve been wearing them for a few weeks and so far, they’re holding strong. You can tell some cost-saving measures were still made—certain areas feel slightly thinner—but overall, the construction is solid. A key win: they stay on. These are ankle socks (not “no-shows”), and they hug the ankle securely. That’s a huge plus in a world where most post-COVID no-shows slide off halfway through the day. We may never get back to the pre-COVID quality standards without paying a premium, but for now, these are a reliable choice. Ratings: • No slipping: 10/10 • Price: 7/10 • Durability (so far): No pilling or loose threads — promising start.

Great Quality and Stylish
Size: Large, Color: (001) Black / Black / White
Exactly what I was looking for. I don’t like socks that are no-show that your ankles rub on the shoe. These are taller than that but shorter than socks that go up and over the ankle. They’re comfortable, good quality, and pretty thick. They’re form fitting m, but not compression. I dint like compression socks, and these are tight, but not too tight.
