Here's something interesting from James Bond Lifestyle:


Thanks to the Christie's charity auction we now know that James Bond (Daniel Craig) will wear a pair of very cool Tom Ford cufflinks in SkyFall, especially made for Bond. The round cufflinks feature Bond's family coat-of-arms with the motto "Orbis Non Sufficit" (The World Is Not Enough) within a black enamel surround.

Bond will wear this pair of cufflinks together with a Tom Ford grey suit, probably in the scene where Bond is running through London and ends up in the London tube.

Approximately 30 pairs of these cufflinks were made by Tom Ford for the film. One of these pairs of cufflinks will be auctioned at 50 Years of James Bond - The Auction at Christie's which takes place online between Friday 28 September and Monday 8 October 2012. Estimated price at the auction: £1,000–1,500 / US$1,600–2,300 / €1,200–1,700.

It is not yet know if Tom Ford customers will be able to get a pair of these cufflinks. James Bond will also wear another pair of Tom Ford cufflinks, when he is in Turkey. More on those soon.

Bond’s family coat of arms is first seen in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service and features again in Skyfall.

    These are a nice touch. We were talking about them in the Christie's auction thread. I'm sure Bond also wears them in the picture introducing the Skyfall section of the catalogue.

    That is a nice touch, having Bond wear them in SF.

    And that is why the auction doesn't count as a 50th celebration: they have nothing any fans can afford to spend money on.

    If I had a grand to spend on any James Bond related item, it certainly wouldn't be that! Overpriced is putting it mildly!

    It does seem rather expensive for what is on offer. I hope there isn't some 'Octopussy' type scenario at the auction with some crazy bids from people and it goes for a much higher price than it's actual valuation, although it may be a bit late for that already before time. But, people will pay silly money for everything, and nothing these days. It's a nice idea that they feature Bond's family motto and Craig will display them this year for the 50th anniversary release, but will viewers really observe them with all that is going on? (in the movie)
