    I think this might be my favourite post / thread ever on tz-uk.

    So much so, I've even bothered to engage with the troll just because the entire subject fascinates me and it amused me to have such good ammo and such a clear shot. Easy fun but sometimes that's OK.

    I'm hoping Jake engages with this ("Tenzing Norgay & Sir Edmund Hillary Conquer Mount Everest With Rolex Watches On Their Wrist" from here: https://www.rolexmagazine.com/2008/1...d-hillary.html)

    And Philipp Stahl, too ("The real deal, Everest ’53 Evans' Rolex next to wannabes [Smiths]" here: https://rolexpassionreport.com/10685...charles-evans/ )



    Stahl has repeatedly referred to Smiths as Schmutz (German for "dirt") See post #30 here https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/vint...23059-s20.html

    Will they update their blogs? (Answer: almost certainly not.)

    I'd be happy for them to join the discussion...
