Quite hard to keep it up as full disclosure has yet to come.
I am still left to wonder what is being said.
And right now, my guess is mr.friedrice jumped into conclusions about the SA "suspecting" his watch is a fake.
And with the current direction of the thread, we might never now.
But seems to me like the guilty one in "sizing up" and "judging a book by it's cover" is the TS himself.
The JLC story is understandable.
Guy walks in, shows his superior language skills in pronunciation, SA looks blur, and when he finally understood what mr.friedrice wants, the feeling is that the guy is just on an ego trip. Honestly though... I don't blame him.
If he would just say "Jay El See Grande Taille", problem solved.
But I guess it's not good enough. So, what is the purpose? Beats me...
So, readers and followers of this thread. What do you guys think?
