I never get tired of looking at that split second shot when bond uses his lighter to see his watch! It even looks "vintage" in the movie!

The very fact that we all enjoyed reading this link makes us as goofy at those Star Trek convention people. Give that one some thought next time you're reading TRF.

Its the appreciation of like minded individuals that fires me up to post all things Sub related, I'm glad everyone thought it was worth sharing, especially something as seminal as the Bond nato strap phenomenon
