Help finding a Gitman Vintage Tie from October 2011 issue of GQ

Hi all,

New to the forum; my apologies if this is posted in the wrong spot. I was hoping someone could help me locate the blue and brown tartan plaid tie on the model in this picture from the October 2011 issue of GQ. This is from a iPad/promo slip of the magazine, but in the actual magazine (which I am sure many of you have), the tie is identified as Gitman Vintage--the same brand as the tie in the right inset. The magazine also says it is available at Barney's, but, alas, it's not available on the website and after being transfered to no less than 7 people at the main store in New York, I believe it's not on the shelves at the store either. One of the not-so-helpful people at Barney's suggested that it might not be in stock yet, and to check back in a few weeks. I am hoping this is the case, but I am a little weary, as the other Gitman ties featured in the October GQ are all available at Barney's website.

Anyone seen this tie in stores or online? Is it not Gitman Vintage, but some other brand, and GQ just has it mislabeled? Again, I'm interested in the brown and blue tartan plaid tie on the model, not the tie on the right.

Thank you!

I called Barney's again today, but everyone there seems to be too indifferent to look. Anyone seen this tie?

Thanks, Journeyman. I wasn't able to find it on their website previously! I'll try some of the stockists in the mid-Atlantic region.
