Where to find this original 1965 ad?

Hei guys! I have a growing collection of Rolex ads to complement my Rolex collection. Most I buy on eBay or source myself from old issues of Playboy ("I only buy it for the ... ads"), National Geographic and Sports Illustrated. I now have all the "If you were ..." ads, and even finally the (to me) elusive "If you shipped out on the Skate, the Shark, or the Nautilus, you'd recognize this face." (which is extremely cool, and is going up on the wall as I write).

But there is one ad that I have yet to find, the "Bond" ad. Anyone knows where in which magazines or issues it was published? All web references says 1965, but I have not managed to find it in any of the 1965 issues of Playboy or Sports Illustrated.

Anyone knows where this can be found? It's just not the same to frame a scan downloaded from the web ...

Can't help you sourcing that one, but please let me know if you ever run across an original magazine ad of this one. You're right about reprints not being the same.
