Alan, I was actually looking at this one too. I seriously considered announcing that this would be "The One, The Only, X Marks Tie"

Available as a stock item from Bows and Ties. No worries about special orders, No problems with having the forum need to stock them.

In fact, make it so. If anyone wishes an X Marks Tie please place your order directly with;

http://www.bows-n-ties.com/dark-blue-ties.php

Look on the left menu for Dark Blue Ties.

Scroll down to item SB2025. 15th row down, far left.

It has been almost three years that this has been a topic of much discussion on the forum. It is now decided and can be put to rest.
