Name: Donald Trump Watch Collection.
Age: New.
Appearance: Glossy.
Price: The most expensive in this range sells for $100,000 (£74,600).
Is that quite a lot for a watch? It contains approximately 200 grams of 18-karat gold (buyers can choose between gold, black gold, or rose gold) and 122 diamonds. “I love gold, and so do we,” the former president said in a marketing video for the website gettrumpwatches.com.
Who is making it? It’s “Made in Switzerland.”
Who is it anyway? Well, that’s not immediately obvious. President Trump appears to have licensed his name to a company called TheBestWatchesOnEarth LLC.
That famous Swiss watch company. Anyway, they are very exclusive. The Trump Victory Tourbillon watch will be limited to 147 pieces, and each will come with a letter from Trump himself.
Tourbillon? This is a mechanism that increases the accuracy of the clock.
Unfortunately, I wanted to do the “Make America Late Again” gag. I guess I just did it anyway.
In any case, you must be a tourbillonaire to purchase a tourbillonaire. Did you know you can get the time from your phone? There’s also a more affordable Fight Fight Fight model that costs just $499 and is water resistant to 200 meters.
This isn’t the first time he’s worked on watches, right? Indeed, he launched the Donald J. Trump Signature Collection at Macy’s in New York in 2005. You might also think of comments from Florida Sen. Marco Rubio.
What was that again? Little Marco, who was nicknamed President Trump, said that if Trump had not inherited the fortune from his father, he would not have run for president and would have been “selling watches in Manhattan.” I think he’s doing both now.
And this isn’t even the first Trump swag available during this campaign, is it? No, sir. Remember the $399 gold Never Surrender high-top sneakers he released at Sneaker Con in February?
A true sneaker con. And that $59.99 branded Bible that reportedly earned him $300,000?
Very Christian and truly a man of God. In addition, commemorative coins and virtual currency…
Stephen Colbert said: Donald Trump could run out of our hush money. ”Good for you, Mr. Colbert. Last year, it was reported that Trump made up to $1 million from the America First collection of digital trading cards.
It’s clear that this man entered politics out of a love of public service and a genuine desire to make things better. And also wonderful.
But this gaudy golden monster may be the ugliest thing he, or really anyone, has ever put out. Amen to that.
Say, “Time is money.”
Don’t say “Mr. President, it’s about time” (in fact, you might).
