I'm not sure i'd want 007's bullet deflecting Sub!!

I can't think of any sensible way that Roger Moore's "hyper intensified magnetic field" Sub 5513 could deflect a bullet - can anyone enlighten me?

I haven't saw that one.... I guess no one has ever pointed a shot gun at the man!? that would be a bit tricky even for 007!

They actually busted the myth because it took an entire row of super-powerful neodymium iron boron magnets to actually affect the bullet.

It was a Milly with a super duper (before it's time) blue parachrom hairspring, and level 4 kevlar plated outer case that did it.....
