Blue scuba mask thunderball

Hello how is everyone?

I am looking for a voit blue oval mask like the one bond uses in thunderball when he is beneath the disco volante. Can anyone help me find one/ anyone want to sell me one? Thanks - rich

    Thanks for the replies! I really hope they have a blue one!
    Does anyone know i this company has those masks made?
    I wonder if a big enough interest was shown that we could get them
    To make a batch of blue ones? Probably far fetched but who knows.

    Every now and then you might find Voit scuba masks on ebay too in good used condition and fair price. Note that AMF bought Voit rubber company (scuba gear etc.) in the 60's, mostly the masks have Voit logo only, but some are not accurate as they also have AMF logo. As for the Connery's fins in Thunderball, look for Voit Viking A6 model, that's the correct model.

    I do actually have a old blue voit mask as well but it is not te exact model bond uses.

    In 1965 after my Dad first saw Thunderball when it was new they went right out of the movie theatre and over to the sportsworld (i believe it was called at the time) and my uncle picked out the correct voit mask which my dad now has in his collection
