SpyTieThere are cameras everywhere these days: ATMs, airports, casinos, even in your necktie. Don't look—they'll know. The Spy Tie consists of a tiny pinhole camera that can be concealed in an average everyday necktie. It connects to a tiny digital video recorder, about the size of a pack of cigarettes, that includes a 2.4" LCD display. Battery life lasts for 60 minutes on this sucker, allowing you to capture all the fantastic spyworthy stuff that I'm sure just fills your life. No offense.

Resolution on the camera is a decent 720x480; via the SD card interface, you can store roughly 280 minutes at the maximum supported 4GB (the SD card is sold separately). The price for this marvel of modern espionage? Just £645, or ~$1273.

Tie not included.
