****. I called NY store, the scarf is definitely NO MORE available. They don't have the silk anymore.
If someone has a picture of it so I cant start my own hunt (or we should really ask Magnoli... big time), it would make my week.
All right, put me down for the Champagne, the London and Greene party tie.
By the way, pictures of PTS and Kazan.

Any news?
I thnk that setteles the debate on teh PTS tie!
Where did you get those pictures do you have higher resolution versions?
Seconded. Are we sure that is the PTS tie?! If so, it matches Holden's swatch.
Someone here (scroll to bottom of 1st post) is selling some TF ties for $150, and some look like they might have been Bond ties, but I can't tell from some of the photos:

The colouring of the tie (PTS) looks consistent with how it appears on screen.
Tout, where did the pictures come from, a TF store?

The #17 Tom Ford tie looks like it could be the "Greene Planet Party" one.
They were taken at the NY TF store before they sent them to me. I just received them. I ordered them two months ago.
By the way, if someone wants to buy a cheaper version, there is ONE left at RAFFAELLO. It is not the good colors (brown instead of black and a lighter blue instead of BLUE), but it's 1/3 of the price.

That's actually a great looking tie! I'm thinking of pulling trigger. Even though it's not one from the movie, it's still in the style of one Bond (DC) would wear.
Raffaello Network ties are close but the codes (confirmed by them) are toftie10040=TFB64... (actual 'Bond' code being TFB61 - PTS Tie) & toftie10036=TFB70 (actual 'Bond' code being TFB73 - Greene Party Tie); so whilst the pattern is correct, the colours vary.
Still a nice ties though.....
Yes, that's what I said. The RAFFAELO PTS is brown and light blue and their GREENE tie has the good blue but it's black instead of silver. I think they are very great alternatives.
I cannot tell you how much I am impressed with my two ties. The fabric for the Kazan is soft and the PTS is kind of rough, but what's really impressive is the effect of light and brillance and darkness. The pictures do not do any justice. The pattern just pops out of the tie for the Kazan and has a very nice transition from brilliant dark blue to complete dark for the PTS. Those are two of the most amazing ties I have ever seen, if not the very best. I think that you will never go back to Magnoli ties after that, it is impossible to replicate this.
Also, please note that they are thinner than the usual TF shape, but that's what was used in QoS I was told.
Tout, interesting point about the tie width. Have to admit that I've kept quiet about that, but did wonder. My TF London & Kazan ties have a blade width at the widest part of 3 & 1/8", whereas I have one of the PTS/Bolivia ties, albeit in a different colour that is 3 & 7/8". I think the code for that one had OVR, for oversize at the end of it.
What's the width on yours and just to confirm once and for all, for the PTS tie, did you specify TFB61 as per the swatch picture?
Someone's got a quick trigger finger and just beat me to the punch to pick up this little beauty for $99! It's none other than the PTS tie. I hope it was someone on these boards.

You know, the more photos I see of the PTS tie, the more I want Magnoli to produce a replica of it. I love the design & colours, but there's no way I can afford TF prices for a tie, even discounted.
Sorry guys but that was me.... They seem to have had a large increase in the amount of Tom Ford Ties they have in stock...I think it is probably down to this forums interest/purchases.
Im holding off on the London tie or near as dammit on page one...Go for it.
TWO MINUTES LATER......so who bagged the London Tie?.....its gone!!

London tie from page one already gone. 
Congrats, RAND! I'm glad it was you.
I did grab that London tie...
Kind regards,
Craig
I was thinking about grabbing that London tie but the "midnight" and "silver" discouraged me. I'm very interested to see if this ends up being the correct tie. You MUST post pics as soon as it arrives. Congrats.

I passed it up the first time I went through the new ties. I associate "midnight" with more of a dark blue than black, but maybe that's just me. The photo certainly looks black - we'll see. I'll definitely post pics when it arrives. I hope RAND does the same, and also posts the TF style # that should be on the plastic sleeve when it arrives.
Kind regards,
Craig

Thanks DBS and congratulations to you.
I will post the style number as soon as the tie arrives.....also I will try and badger my son to help me post some pictures, not only of the PTS tie, but also the other T/F ties that I have.
I just spoke with the folks over at Raffaello, and they informed me that these ties are all last season's items with limited availability, so they will not be restocking - what you see is what they've got.
Kind regards,
Craig
Choice been made on the PTS tie?

That's not the London tie.
It's very alike, but it's not the same pattern, if the Raffaello picture is accurate. The little circles aroung the white dots are not the same. And it's black instead of grey.
And the white dots are less round. Look at both the zoom and full tie, there is no round effect.
But it's very very close. TF obviously did a lot of different versions of the same pattern, look at the PTS.

I am so jealous. When you receive it, tell us if it's skinny or larger at the bottom.
Holden, we have the same tie.
