A electronic article surveillance (EAS) device (10) includes a body (12) with at least one marker housed inside an inner cavity (14) and a retaining formation (26) that is attached to the body (12) to grip and release the article under surveillance, e.g. to grip and release the neck of a bottle under surveillance. The grip formation (26) can pivot between a lock position in which it holds the bottle neck captive against the body (12) and a free orientation in which the bottle neck can be removed from the retaining formation (26). The body (12) further defines a recess (20) adjacent the retaining formation (26), in which a part of the bottle neck is received when the bottle neck is gripped by the retaining formation (26). |
