Hey guys I found a pointed end bow tie on Ebay for $15:

I have bought one of these they are a very nice bow tie, they are very SC, now if you want it to look like SC's you have to push the pointed end of the knot a little back.

This is the image I found on ebay with the link you gave us... Doesn't look at all like the James Bond one.
That's because an idiot tied that one, otherwise it looks good.
Well, a black bowtie can easily look like another black bow tie, but I would not say that this one is identical to the James Bond one.
But most importantly, the eBay descriptions says that it is ready made! Which means you'll get this very ugly model, and of course, James Bond would not wear a ready made bow tie!!
Agreed! Gents, tie your own tie. I have to wear a tux often for my job (professional musician) and always tie my own. An elder in the business once told me, "It's easy. It's just like tying a shoe lace." He's right for the most part.
Christo has tied the one he bought correctly, so I think he means that it will come tied, not that it is a pre-tied version. Like I said, a muppet tied the one in the pic, so I hate to think what it would look like when you received it 8-)

Looks very good, but imported means it was maybe made in China. Also, I'm not sure it's the same sort of fabrics than CR. When you look at the very detailed pictures, it seems less glossy than in the movie.
But it looks very good.
You seem very critical of everything posted on here.
The diamond end bow tie was worn in QoS not Casino Royale.
I have one of these bow ties and they are very well made from high quality silk.
I don't want you to see me as critical, but I do want to improve things. And I think that for the price, you can continue looking, you might find better. A 60 USD bow tie made in China is expensive.
