nickel/ natural brass finish/ lacquer finish The Diver’s Helmet is a
beautiful detailed reproduction of the famous U.S. Navy Mark V Helmet designed by

screw-in face plate. The Mark V Diving Helmet became the standard U.S. Navy Diving
equipment and was used for most salvage work during World War II. The MK V Diving
Helmet was so well designed that it was used for U.S. Navy Diving with very few
modifications until succeeded by the MK12 in 1980.
All the details such as the breastplate, hinged face plate, side view ports, spit cock,
exhaust control handle, regulating escape valve, air intake elbow and exhaust piping
are faithfully reproduce
