Last two jobs I landed (two years and three weeks ago) I went without ties. Both upward moves. Interviews were during the day, explained that wearing ties was a sure sign at my old company that I was interviewing.

So did they want you enough to counteroffer?

Wear the tie. If this is really a problem/concern, you can always wear a dress shirt open collared and sleeves up at the job, throw on the tie and roll down the sleeves for the interview.
