That was Fleming's decision. Fleming put Bond in a black knit tie, which is probably less conspicuous for a spy. In the films, Connery wore knit ties throughout Goldfinger and one in You Only Live Twice. George Lazenby wore mostly knit ties. Moore, Dalton and Brosnan all wore a knit tie at least once. But they never wore a bow-tie outside of black tie, keeping true with Fleming's Bond.
Thanks Matt makes sense… But why the “#¤%&/( did Fleming always wear a bow-tie ??? Normal at the time ??? and fun how the bow-tie has disappeared from the “normal” todays clothe.
