Question, so all the people that “knew” what the shorts were.. the movie has premiered and had its general release. From what I heard, nothing could be said until the movie comes out. Well it’s out now and crickets. I’m really starting to believe people maybe strongly thought they knew what they were, made it seem like they 100% knew, maybe really just never did.
If people really do actually know, all I ask is not to lead us on saying you’ll tell us soon (forever ago) then nothing. I understand there is probably no maliciousness intended by any means but at this point it is coming off as a little “ I know something you don’t know.” Not to mention the fact that some people on here have said they’ve seen members wearing shorts that look an awful lot like them. Meaning they knew, purchased, but are keeping a secret just to keep a secret. Maybe even letting their friends know.
Movie is out, we’ve all been searching for months, yr, or even more. The longer ppl wait and hold info, the less chance there is for us in the community to buy. Not trying to come off as mean or anything haha they are just shorts I get it but goodness some us are so tired of searching everywhere if in fact someone does and has known for a while.
I recently ordered two different sizes of the rgt supply jacket in Tan and decided to keep the medium, but I noticed that the color of the jackets were different. Those that have ordered a the jacket, have you noticed the same thing?
I did notice a difference between my Medium, and other rgt supply jackets and I do prefer the darker hue. What's the size you're not keeping? I'm still looking for a size Large.
this was small and medium. I decided to keep the medium, the small was too tight in the armpits. In the photo, you can also see a peak of the R&B henley. I got both a size small and medium and kept the small. What was weird was that I ordered both from R&B and one came with the cream placket while the other came with the white one. Over sharing but just want to share in case others are reading.
Quick question regarding the NTTD Omega… I may have missed it. Is the watch pouch/ case that the retail version comes in, was it in the movie? Maybe in the background of his place in Jamaica? Thanks 🍻
I ordered Small and Medium RGT last year and they were slightly different colours. I passed on the medium so can't remember which was lighter or darker now. Guess cut from a different material run? Both are fine IMO, but I would say the lighter looks more SA.
Are you sure both henleys don't have the same off-white/beige-ish placket? Or can you really spot the difference? In your photos the plackets look really similar in terms of color. I ask because I too ordered a medium and my placket is more off-white while the rest of the henley is a solid white.
Here are photos of the small and medium henley. The small has the white placket while the medium has the off-white one. To make sure I was not seeing things I showed the shirt to two different people and they both agreed that the medium placket was off white and the small was white. It's subtle but definitely there.
also I got a reply from RGT themselves when I asked about the RGT jacket color. I kept the darker hue since it was my size, but both hues looks really good.
"Yes, over the years (we've been producing this jacket since 2014), there have been different shade lots from the fabric mill, this is noted on the product page and unfortunately it's just part of the dying process at the mill. So it looks like you received jackets from 2 different production lots. We've been working with the mill to get a shade kind of between the 2 that you have, and it will be more consistent moving forward. - RGT"
I also got a reply back from the RGT team in regards to the different hues in the RGT jacket. I kept the darker one since it was my correct size, but both colors look good.

Since it’s all but confirmed N. Peal actually recreated the combat trousers for retail, has anyone been able to confirm how SA the braces they’re selling are? I know there was some talk of how they connected to the pants but can’t quite nail down the actual color. Are they a heather charcoal?

Everything they have made is off. Pretty much like all licenced prop replicas too. The Combat jumper is ribbed differently to the screen used one, with less of a stretch construction between the ribs, which doesn’t pull the ribbing together at all. That’s why the screen used one has more ribs to the inch than the copy. The trousers are off on the belt loops, inner pocket and knife pocket, and the braces attach differently too. Not sure what else has changed. But you can bet there are more differences than those I’ve mentioned. The colour looks OK.
The waxed watch case? No, the closest you get is in Q's lab, when the watch is seen having a gadget attached- that's the same machine featured on Omega's NTTD marketing photos.
Oh god... the less said about Matchless the better. That company is in the vast minority of brands that instead of selling copies of the one-offs that they produce for a given film, they instead take an existing design that the custom piece was based off of, use a matching leather, and sell it as having been in the movie. Refer to Terminator Genisys- the Sarah Connor jacket was just their base moto jacket with none of the changes. Same for the Arnold jacket.
And you want to talk about cutting corners? Matchless has got you covered there too. Look at the Han Solo vest replica they did. More specifically the back of the vest. The big loops are now the same loops they use on the chest.
But I digress.
N Peal's trousers do have a few strange differences. I noticed that there's very different loops on the back of Craig's trousers that's not on N Peal's (see the scene where Bond is being shot in the Zen garden).
Suspenders look fine, especially consider how they aren't too prominent in the film. I think they are using different hardware than the production used ones, but close enough.
Otherwise, I think it's best to just wait till the movie comes out on 4k Blu Ray for suspender comparisons.
Thanks to the pictures @Bond... James Bond shared om IG, I can now confirm the watch worn by Primo in the Matera chase, and possibly the rest of the movie is the Hamilton Frogman diver watch I'm black with black rubber strap
Ah, very interesting. In the fleeting moment my brain registered the Philip Plein logo. Obviously not that as it's a trash brand. But TB and Thomas Burberry would make a lot of sense. Need to pay a projectionist to load up just those frames to be sure.
I saw the movie again last night and I have to say the Burberry cap is a good shout. This time I spotted the embroidery and it looks to have the shape of the TB logo.
That and the thicker band at the back make it a good match.
I was laser focused on that scene when it came up. Lol.
Certainly makes sense being it’s a heritage British brand and supporting characters like M and crew have worn Burberry on screen. Bond himself (Roger) has sported a Burberry tie previously.
I see no reason to buy a $400 baseball cap to cosplay in, but to anyone that wants to, now you have a 2 year old colorway to seek out. 😅
Also, curiously, MrPorter are selling this belt from Massimo Alba which they claim was provided in NTTD, not sure if this is the same belt that is worn in Matera with the light grey cord trousers:
Good pick up! Slightly off topic for this exact thread, but Mr Porter also looks to be stocking something very similar to the QoS Tom Ford cardigan and the Spectre Solden TF jacket. I had a look a few days ago at their TF stock and didn't notice any of this. I haven't been around long enough to know if these are totally SA, but jumped out when taking a quick look just now.

Do we have the actual SKU number for the ties TF7 JB08 XTA and TF7 JB15 XTA? I called the TF store in Madison NY and those numbers didnt come up.
Sadly, this is true. I did manage to snag one TF 7JB15, which is the brighter, non-screen accurate one. I guess its a decent consolation prize.
EDIT: found one XTA-7JB08 and JB20, which is the grey. They're supposed to ship from Milan in a couple of weeks, so we'll see if they really are the correct ones. They did confirm via the fabric swatch, so here's hoping.
TF Milan confirmed that the XTA-7JB15D is indeed screen accurate, which is the dark blue almost purple used with the grey prince of wales check suit in M's office.

This is very interesting. Does it look that way on the front side too or just the back?
when I get home I can take pictures of the front before I send the medium back

Nope, not in the movie.
Yes, I linked the Burberry hat earlier in this thread.

Thanks for that. It seems like there's an issue regarding the plackets with the medium henleys.

As much as I love the N.Peal sweater it does genuinely piss me off that for $500 the sweater isn't 100% accurate.
The same can be said about the $1400 Matchless jacket.

Sorry, but none of the links seem to work.
That’s because they sold out a year back. They’re really old links quoted from an old post.
