Not wishing to rain on your parade, I think I have also completed Skyfall and a few others
Very impressive! My favourite is, of course, the Connery navy grenadine. I have about 10 navy grenadine ties, though they aren't all the same, and a couple are fake grenadine. None of my navy grenadine ties are from Turnbull & Asser, though many makers use the same Fermo Fossati silk. Turnbull & Asser uses the wrong side, so I've had other ties made with the wrong side.
I have a rare Turrnbull & Asser ribbed tie from Diamonds Are Forever, but nobody cares about Diamonds Are Forever.

Cool - which one is that?? Imagine the T&A ones turn up now and then on fleabay but nobody pays attention to all the vintage ones!
Ive yet to grab a Grenadine, have a few knitted ones which I love the look (Navy Sinclair and Black Tom Ford)
Hi Welshy, sorry to hijack your thread. Lovely collection by the way!
I recently bought this TF tie from Selfridges as it reminds me of the QoS pattern. I don't own the original but thought maybe you could comment as you do...
Note in real life it's more navy than blue compared to the pics
I saw that tie when I was in Selfridges a few weeks ago and thought it might be a reissue - it looks pretty much like it to me. Its def the same pattern and similar shade when seen in real life though unless both ties in my hand hard to be 100%.
Chuck a real pic up and I will dig mine out. The pic above of mine is not great capturing the blue

I'd love to get this tie, even if it's just a "close enough", but Selfridges won't ship it to me in the USA. Anyone willing to pick one up in store for me and ship to the US? I'd be most grateful! Please PM me if you are willing.
Yeah I'm waiting for my AD to get their batch in!!
The Omega Boutique at Westfield White City had one last week and the Omega boutique in Cannes, France had one in their window when I was there yesterday.

Very nice mate!
I have the Quantum ones but stupidly sold my Brosnan ones inc the rare copper Hamburg T&A tie and Dunhill cufflinks!
I do love the Quantum collection, my fave of the films

If this is a close reissue I hope they do the same for the Bolivia tie. I love that colour with the brown suit...
You're welcome, Paul!
Fantastic collection mate! V envious! {[]

What lesson was learnt the hard way?
Not a popular book but I enjoyed it (even though not very Fleming)
Are you getting the Ltd Ed 300 then?
Cant see the pic for some reason -{
Thanks for the tip - first thing I was thinking about when I opened it!!! My Casino Royale bentley edition is on a ship somewhere in the Atlantic!!
Yeah I'm waiting for my AD to get their batch in!!
