Anybody happen to have a pdf copy of the 50 year auction catalogue? Christie's e-version seems to not be up anymore, and it's well sold out. Thanks.

Go here and click on E-catcalogue on the right. I just did it.

Thank you... but that's for the Spectre auction, which I have downloaded from Christie's as most of us interested have. What I'm after is the previous Christie's auction catalogue, the one they did in 2012 for the 50th anniversary, which AFAIK had a wider and more interesting selection of items. Higgins has kindly offered help, so I should be covered.

Oh, sorry! That's what I get for speed reading. I guess I too would love to see that if anyone would be so kind...?

I think I'm challenged but could someone please e-mail me the spectre and 50th anniversary PDFs.

The DB10 £2,100,000!

2.1 million for a 3 million prototype - good deal! ;%

A few pics from the big night:



Meeting Jany Temime after our longterm e-romance:





Barbara tells me they've decided to go with James Corden as the next Bond:



Some of you wanted pics of the holster, so I've got you some pics of the holster...:



























And pics of the DB10's gadget switches:



















Don't say I don't look after my friends

Stunning photos Blair; looks like you had a great time as well as providing plenty of photographic info for those that want it! -{ -{

Seconded... Great pics.... Now where's the guy who said he could make a replica?

(Oh and I bet Barbara didn't see your head but coming .. )

The Bond Vivant

Oh, and for those interested, I had a good look at the Day Of The Dead Mask- it's in 2 pieces, connected by elastic. I'm putting together a video for The Bond Experience, posting as soon as I can through David. The car was amazing....

The Bond Vivant

Here are some close-ups of the lapis cufflinks:







And the mother of pearl ones:









And Blofeld's golden ring:



Cheers, then,

Blair

The Bond Vivant

Cheeky drinks at Buck's Private Members Club with Doctor, Remmert and David Mason, of Anthony Sinclair fame. What a night...

Blown away Blair!! Fantastic pics! I'm very jealous...

Thank you so much for sharing!

First post so Hello everyone, sorry for not posting in the introduction thread first but I have to ask this question, Did the same person who got the DB10 also buy the gadget switches?

Cant believe they didn't leave them in the car, very extreme version of "breaking for spares" )

Firstly, welcome {[]

To answer your question though, the Q Branch switches for the DB10 are still going though the online only auction. See here:

https://onlineonly.christies.com/s/james-bond-spectre-the-online-sale/q-branch-db10-gadget-switches-19/25143

If the buyer of the DB10 is a Bond fan and not just a car fan, it would make sense to grab the switches too. That said, the DB10 that was sold might not have been the one that had that piece of gubbins screwed to the dashboard for filming interior shots.

To round off the DB10 auction night, this is from Christies. Interesting thing is perhaps looking at the dial of the Omega 300, the auction piece may also be the SFX watch as the segments look like they may have a dual red function? -{

I think you could be correct on that observation, having watched the video twice and paused it at the appropriate place it does seem so, which is strange that they did not mention it in the catalogue
Maybe Christies were worried that if they pulled the winder out and turned the bezel to five it may have exploded

I have someone in the UK who can make a replica holster, I would have to ask him if it's OK to publish his details, pm me if your interested.
