In the pre-title sequence of the James Bond film Moonraker (1979), we can spot a Weltron 2001 8-Track player.
The radio is located in the small airplane from Apollo Airways in which James Bond is travelling. When the pilot and stewardess reveal themselves to be bad, we can see the round Weltron radio next to the door that leads to the cockpit.
Champagne Bollinger is celebrating its 40th year in partnership with James Bond with the launch of two special editions: the Moonraker 2007 magnum in a unique Eric Berthes-designed gift box, and a 2011 Millésimé.
The Bond and Bollinger partnership began with the movie Moonraker, released forty years ago, in 1979.
When we think of martini, we usually think of the (vodka) martini cocktail that Bond consumes regularly. But the brand Martini, a vermouth, is also often seen in Bond films and mentioned in Bond novels, as part of the martini cocktail.
One of the more subtle products placed in Bond films are Swan Vesta matches. The brand is mentioned in the Ian Fleming novel You Only Live Twice and we can see Swan Vestas in the movies On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), The Man With The Golden Gun (1975), Moonraker (1979) and Octopussy (1983).
The diary of Holly Goodhead (played by Lois Chiles) in Moonraker (1979) is a brown leather Harrods diary.
The logo of Harrods and the words "real leather" are imprinted on the back and the logo on the front, and can be seen clearly in Bond's hands in Goodhead's room in Hotel Danieli in Venice. The sides of the pages are gold coloured.
James Bond (Roger Moore) uses a Glastron Carlson CV23HT speedboat in the movie Moonraker (1979). HT stands for Hard Top. Only 300 of these hard top boats were built in 1978 and 1979, and only 3 of those were built with the custom painted silver metalflake gelcoat over gray (the 'normal' boats sold to the public had either metalflake blue or metalflake bronze color).
Antique Boat America and the Antique Boat Museum are proud to announce that a fully restored 1978 Glastron Carlson 23 foot will be offered for sale at the 47th Clayton Annual Boat Show and Auction on Saturday August 6th, 2011.
The Seiko M354 5019 model SFX003 Memory-Bank Calendar was used by James Bond (Roger Moore) in the 1979 movie Moonraker.
The Seiko watch is a gadget watch: it is equipped with explosives and a remote detonator, which Bond uses to escape from the Moonraker launch platform.
Bollinger and Bond is one of the most enduring marketing partnerships in motion picture history. Champagne Bollinger is featured in almost every Bond movie since Live And Let Die.
The literary James Bond first encounters Bollinger in the book Diamonds Are Forever, when Tiffany Case sends a quarter-bottle to his cabin on the Queen Elizabeth.
