Sometimes this kind of mis-information ends up on postings that are re-blogged.

I found a blog referencing a blog post of mine, with my photo, (of the 3 Heuer Silverstones), and the blog goes on to talk about them as if they are the TAG Heuer re-issue versions, saying that the re-issues are available in Blue, Red and Black. I did leave a comment pointing out the errors.
This sort of thing can then get re-blogged again and again, until it reaches a point where it looks like the information is factually correct.. almost like a modern form of chinese whispers. Thankfully it doesn't happen too much.

: No, the one on the left is not the "original" Carrera
: (from 1963/64), it's the first "Jack Heuer" re-issue,
: from 2004.

: Have a look at this Tumblr posting --

: Still, it's interesting to compare these two, and see what Jack
: Heuer selected as his special Carreras, in 2004 and now for the
: 2012 re-issue.
