Bond actually wore that?

Great spot, I think you're right!

I was going to post a comparison screen grab but believe I cannot do that for copyright reasons. During the scene where he is looking down at the BA magazine you see the detail better - looks spot on to me!!

You can...provide a link to the image and all is ok - We may be ok with the odd image, it's just as long as the forum isn't saturated with them... -{

I looked but cannot say for sure colours looked Grey to me but may be my bad copy. I have the T&A Tie he wears after returning to the UK (and usefulness) when he picks up his invisible Aston from Q (Grey Tie with blue circles) - plus the others that T&A sales staff could confirm from DAD and TWINE. They never mentioned this one at the time (normally there is reference to the Bond connection in their on line description as well)

But hey what the hell its a nice tie anyway. Wear it in good health

Cheers :007)

There are quite a few T&A ties in the movies which have never been promoted by T&A as Bond ties (Hamburg copper tie which I once owned, the Hong Kong Yacht Club as well as the Bilbao tie come to mind). T&A only seemed to label them Bond ties when they reissued the 3 that are available currently (actually I think one of these 3 has sold out completely now also)

Nice! :007)

Thunderpussy · January 2015

Yep ! Nice tie. -{

Holden · January 2015

Looks good P!

Flighty · January 2015

Very nice find!

Matt S · January 2015

It sure looks like the sam tie! And that's a great screenshot of the birdseye suit. I couldn't get my blu-ray to show the birdseye pattern so well.

Westward_Drift · January 2015

Nice find. And great screen caps. Bond wore a different tie in the next scene at the parachute jump, right?

hthomas · January 2015

Is this tie up on their website?

Also - How are you taking screen caps like that?

Charmed & Dangerous · January 2015

Yes that's almost certainly it - lovely find, and unlike some of the others from the Brosnan era, it hasn't dated.

Westward_Drift - yes he wears the grey tie with blue circles in the next scene, if I recall rightly. -{

Nah this is long gone im afraid, one of many not advertised as Bond or relaunched like the TWINE Thames, DAD Circle etc

Screen capture was done on a Mac in iTunes (I ripped my blu rays into iTunes in 1080p and stream them around the house via Apple TVs)

Yup. This tie only has quick screen time on the plane

It's a different tie with a different suit and shirt (charcoal pinstripe suit with blue shirt). The navy birdseye suit on the plane is the same as the suit he wears at the hotel in Hong Kong with the multi-colour tie (which looks mostly red).

Welshy I envy you in a good way

Kaleema007 · January 2015

Would Magnoli be able to replicate this tie?

The Red Kind · January 2015

Great find Welshboy! -{

Indy Magnoli · January 2015

Great find... is the tie shown your actual tie. If so, looks mint.

We could definitely look at doing this if the interest is there...

Kaleema007 · January 2015

My interest is definitely there... by the way, will be purchasing some Brosnan Era ties from you soon Indy...

DevroxPrime · February 2015

What a sensational find! Looks 100% correct to me. I would most definitely purchase a Magnoli version should Indy start stocking it.
