What sharp little eyes you’ve got

Recently, a friend sent me this as a gift (Thank you John!!!)

Although we never really see a close-up photo of Domino’s Ankle bracelet, she does have one on her ankle when we see Bond sucking out the Sea Urchin spine from her foot.

John researched the typical ankle bracelets from that era and designed this one in Sterling Silver which I feel is a very nice representation of what it may have looked like.

Top marks on this, John. Can’t wait to see your next offering.

    Cool picture.
    Can you tell a little more about the vintage Bond-looking gear?

    Actually. my "Ducky" IS quite large ( or so I've been told ) but I manage to squeeze it into most things....including my bathtub. :))

    Lars, the other Bond gear in the photo are a Vintage Blue Voit Underwater knife used by SPECTRE Frogmen while the Diving Mask is the one we see Domino wearing in the film prior to stepping on the Sea Urchin.

    Ed- thanks for the kind words! Very glad you like my rendition of Domino's ankle bracelet. I did a good bit of research into vintage ankle bracelets from the 60's- they were mostly small, generally oval-shaped, and had simple chains as does Domino's in the scene you mentioned. Beyond that, you have to use your imagination- I decided on a script name instead of block lettering- seems more feminine. Your display looks great- just need to get some sand and shells to create a proper exhibit for mine. I have a couple of extras if anyone is interested- send me a PM.
