What would you expect from a 28,000 euro watch set? Perhaps specially made 36mm, 39mm and 42mm Rolex Explorer watches crafted in honor of Hillary and Tenzig, some of the most well known mountaineering families of all time. It’s not just the awesome watches but the entire package including custom items commemorating the 1953 Everest Exedition. According to Perpetuelle, the set contains”a unique silver mountaineering pin, a limited HTE edition of the book Everest by the late George Band and a leather bound map of the original 1953 expedition route to Everest, to name a few highlights. All packed in a beautiful, hand-crafted wooden crate like the one use in the 1953 expedition.” (Perpetuelle) The interesting part is that this set is in no direct affiliation with Rolex. Nevertheless this awesome explorer set (limited to 88 sets) is something bound to become a coveted collector’s item.

The Hillary Tenzing website is not half bad either.
