Having taken the beige herringbone jacket out of the cupboard where it's been since October - it too has a ticket pocket - with a flap this time (also slanted!) - so whilst slanted pockets are right ... there are still too many pockets! Product code is MN268542 - though not sure this helps at all now. At least it shows that BC do the slanted pocket design.
Following a little more detective work and more careful observation: BC jackets with slanted pockets also have slanted button holes(straight pockets, straight button holes)!
I have found a jacket without ticket pocket, with slanted pockets which with an interesting piece of coincidence has the code MH4007BC6. Not sure this helps, as still not from the right jacket material and I'm not clear what this first code denotes (before the colour code). Material of SA blazer looks to be BC's wool, linen, silk cloth mix as you can see the "bobbles" (sorry don't know technical term!) in the fabric in high quality photos.
The pictures above are similar to the suit DC wore to Omega: peaked lapel, straight pockets (and ticket pocket) (and straight button holes!)
At the Online-Store www.bachsport.at is the Canada Goose Lodge Down Hoody in sizes S and L are still available. Although on the webpage of this store the color is called Navy it is definitely Spirit. Prize = EUR 550,-.
Discussion and reviews of the Orlebar Brown shirt that Bond wears in the movie Spectre on the train...but mystery abounds as we delve into the detective work surrounding this offering...
Matt- I stand enlightened and very much corrected! I just thought that it was a touch of Gallic mispronunciation! So there may still be hope in tracking it down eventually...

I think the OB shirt is clearly the Morton. You can clearly see the weave of the shirt in these pics. The Malone does not have this same weave/textured look to it.

Was yesterday in London and had the opportunity to vist Harrods, Selfridges an TF at Sloane Street. All 3 independently told me all the SA stuff will be soon available again in all sizes (eg. Navy Polo, Sölden jacket, etc.)
Just out of curiosity, did anyone notice that at the end of the movie Bond is wearing a black leather strap with his watch!?
Any news on the watch and or the strap?
There's been a discussion about the third watch on another thread, so far I don't think anyone has id'd it? Personally I think it's either a deville model or the new globemaster. Though as far as I can tell the latter doesn't have a model with sub dials. I've collected omega watches since I inherited a 60's SM300 and none of my contacts or indeed my local omega boutique can confirm this watch.....the hunt continues
Wondering how these shoes are holding up after having them around for a bit. I'm considering making a purchase soon. Thanks! -{
From what I recall Mantis saying in another thread they are not holding up well at all. I'm sure he will chime in with some details.
My pair didn't like driving - the 'foxing' rubbed away from the sole after one short drive. Not Goodyear welted either so resoling is out......
I wear mine sparingly especially if I am driving any longer than a few minutes for that same reason. I purchased some Clark's Desert Boots as a good alternative although its soles have worn a bit also, but nowhere near as bad as the Sanders.
The winder on the right rules out the graham as do the lug shape, and there is an absence of subdial push buttons so the deville chronograph is also dubious..

You posted that she said it was an "antic piece". Did she mean "antique"? "Antic" means "fantastic; odd; grotesque", and I'd describe it as such.

But she could have meant antique. There is a spelling mistake on the next line down: "Neil Garrett", and it might not be the only spelling mistake.

Interesting. I'm a size 12. I'm going to follow up with you in a pm if you're thinking of selling.
How much?

I think the consensus is that the watch is most probably the Omega Deville 42mm Chronograph:
