I agree urhash. Brosnan's posture is not natural. You can see that he is pushing back. I wear T&A ties to work everyday and I have no problems with tie length (I'm 6-2). T&A will make this tie problem though there is a minimum order of 12. I asked about the possibility of other bond ties being made available when they reissued 3 last year. I was told that as long as it could be proved that it was a T&A tie (copyright reasons) they could reproduce any of the ties (min. 12).
Im interested in this tie. I cant find it on the Turnbull and Asser british website. They have a black herringbone tie there but it has a small pattern.
What I see here is indigo and yellow. Is it just the lighting? I also see those colours in the book James Bond: The Secret World of 007 on page 12 in the group of 3 ties.
The Azerbaijan tie, however, looks only black in the film.
And for someone who has the tie, can you tell me if it's a herringbone or a pointed twill? The difference is shown in the examples below. It has to do with where the pattern changes direction.
Asp9mm had a contact in T&A UK who was able to confirm that black was the correct color. I see what you're saying though, and it's definitely been discussed before.
Assuming asp9mm's contact is still correct, I suppose there's a distinct possibility that black was used in the Azerbaijan scenes and a custom tie was requested from Hemming for the Bilbao scenes (since a indigo/yellow was never offered off-the-rack by T&A). But the black tie reflects a lot of light and shows yellow tonalities under different artificial lighting so it might just be film lighting (being an indoor scene shot on set).
Now that the Bilbao Tie has officially known to be Dark Blue and Bronze (as per the recent auction) is there any interest in getting the proper one done by T&A???

Hello,
Long time lurker on the site, first time poster. I'd be in for one of these ties, if they can be made.
