"In the 1930-ies Galeazzi manufactured a copy of the German Neufeldt and Kuhnke suit. Galeazzi modified the original design in several points. For instance, he applied a gimbal ring in the joint that reduced the total area of friction making the joint more mobile.

Life support is maintained by an oxygen rebreather and: the diver can see his feet ! Looking down and working turned out to bee much easier than in the Neufeldt and Kuhnke suit. Like with the earlier rigs this suit was only really suitable with two feet on the ground and not while dangling in open water."
