This is a pleasant surprise...I just joined this site yesterday and have already found out that I own a "Bond collectible"!
Most of my clothes come from Zara because, as a Canadian, most of the clothes in stores here seem to be made for (forgive my bluntness) fat North Americans. At a hair under 5'9" and 162 lbs (with a broad chest) I find it insane that I take an extra-small polo shirt from, say, The Gap (and even that is still a little loose through the body). So Zara is a godsend for me and I find by buying carefully you can get some very well-made items.
I'm in a Zara once every 2 to 4 weeks but I had never seen this shirt. Then, shortly after Boxing Day 2011, the Zara close to where I work got a lot of clothes in that I have never seen before - apparently they move sale items around to different locations as they'll sell better. So I picked up the shirt after its second discount - I think it went down to $19 Canadian. Prior to that there were quite a few left; if only I had known it was in Skyfall I would have bought every one!
As someone upthread said, Zara often releases almost identical versions of shirts two summers in a row so we may see it return. The only thing that I would caution is that it was part of the "Zara youth" line and it's even slimmer than regular Zara shirts. My medium pulls a bit at the chest and the sleeves are a bit too long. But it's a great shirt and I had already gotten lots of compliments on it. Can't wait to wear it after SF comes out! If they do a similar shirt we'd likely see it in March or April 2013.

Well done, lucky man
Thank you, but it was indeed just luck. I wonder if the other two shirts I bought that day will be in SF too... ;-)
As this shirt was from the spring/summer collection it might be that now is on sale in countries having spring/summer at present. I do not think Zara is making tow spring/summer collections in the same year.
Anybody from Down Under can help us to check it by local Zara dealers?
i have just noticed that this Zara shirt pictured at the beginning of this thread from Lagoona is long sleeved..
if its the same shirt we are on about when he is drinking with skorpians , then Bonds is short sleeved?

Don,,
The 076479 is the stock number for the H&M shirt. I have called all the stores in the Atlanta area, and there are none in stock. I found two Larges at the Winston Salem store. I have an XL on hold at the Raleigh store if someone nearby could go pick it up. I would be willing to trade for a Large.
