It's him. He's the whore.
Wow, these are some truly hideous watches. This has got to be a money laundering scheme or something. No one actually interested in watches would spend six figures on one of these.
It's not for people interested in watches. It's for people interested in seeing a large economy having a figurehead who is a complete fucking waste of space.
Honestly, better than I was expecting. I was expecting gaudy gold, maybe with some (probably fake) diamonds. You know, Trump's ugly style. These just look fairly plain and cheap. I agree it does look like money laundering because they're far from nice, but they're just not as ugly as I expected.
It does look like it has some fake looking gemstones on the outside ring. Soooo trashy
Gotta take the rubes for everything they're worth. I wonder how many inheritances that fucking guy has sacked.

She’s so bad at sounding like a typical person.
I think she should go to a donut shop.
She doesn't even care enough to ask someone how long they've worked there. It would be, "give me 12 donuts and do not talk to me, peasant."

Since people keep commenting on how it looks. Here they are. That way you don't have to give that cretin more clicks.
Dude if someone told me this was a modded Seiko 5 with a "tourbillion" movement in it I would 100% believe it.
What the fuck is a tourbillion?
It's essentially a fancy watch spring mechanism. So the open spot on the bottom of the dial is the tourbillion as it unwinds it rotates around.
Huh
So you gotta wind it?
Might be automatic. That way the movement of the arm winds it
the movement of the arm winds it
That explains why Trump fails his arms around during his rambling speeches.
Generally yes, like the other reply said it might be automatic and self winding. It's a style of mechanical watch though so something somehow has to tension the spring that makes the watch run.
Sadly it only has a fluxdepacitor. It's like a flux capacitor but it resists moving in time instead.
those actually look kinda cool... for like $200.

the $500 ones have mineral glass crystals - sapphire coated.
movement is not mentioned, just "Automatic Movement With Date Window"
signature on the dial looks atrocious
grifter trash
Sapphire isn't even that expensive anymore. So cheap. The "automatic movement" really gives it Wal-Mart vibes 🤣
I once bought a replacement face off eBay for 20eur. It's probably as cheap as the glass equivalent.

Is this not blatant money laundering?
Unless he is destroying the watches and saying "oh look, I received these duffle bags of cash".
No, no, I think this is just blatant scamming.
You don't need to destroy the watch for it to be money laundering. If he receives cash for the watch, he can hide the exact amount by means of some Weisselberg-esque money tricks.
But yeah, more than likely it's his semi yearly trashy overpriced product drop.
- Trump gives Joe $1mil worth of Cocaine
- Trump manufacturers a watch at the cost of $10/each
- Joe buys 10 of these watches for $100k each
That is how you money launder via purchases. It's more common to use artwork but you get the gist.
Foreign nationals are prohibited from donating to Trump’s campaign fund. There’s no rule against them buying a dozen overpriced watches, though. They may not even be upset that their order is never delivered.
Nope just good old American grifting.
You know it's got a tiny watch face so it doesn't dwarf his tiny hands.
His hands aren't even particularly small. But he's an old, fat and decrepit man and he needs a very large and padded suit to give his body some sort of healthy appearance. His hands sticking out of that suit therefore look tiny.
Seriously, look at the pictures of him golfing in his XXXL polo shirt. The guy is shaped like one of the McNuggets
LOL "gold"
yea, i'm sure. just like those fuglidiculous sneakers
Maybe he’s raising money FOR the poor… haha
The money is exactly for that. All of it is going to someone who is bankrupt, morally bankrupt, but stil....
I was listening to some interviews with undecided voters.
Several saying that Trump is a business genius and has what it takes to balance the budget and run the economy.
These people are "low information voters" who saw a meme in tiktok once, so you can't really blame them. Still, it's weird that this impression has sick with him despite him being the worst economic manager in the history of forever.
Haha. Some days I wish I was morally bankrupt enough to qualify for free millions.
she doesnt say it in sympathy
She's downright pissed at these poor bitches that can't buy her watches.
The Con-Man continues to live up to his reputation.
The old weirdo doesn't have time for a second debate because he's too busy playing golf and hawking overpriced collectables.
sometimes I wish I could get away with such a blatant grift. I love my $15 wood and leather watch.
Have you thought of selling it as a wood and leather watch- but with AI?
maybe I could write "rump" on it and sell it for $80,000
You got a cuckoo clock on your wrist? That's all I think of when you say a wooden watch
it's similar to this. got it from amazon back off one of their first prime day thingies, I've only had to change the battery twice in ten years so I like it. I like the minimalistic look tho

I’d love to know what brand these really are or who made them. Made in china or Mexico?
TheBestWatchesOnEarth LLC started in 07/2024.
Located at:
1309 Coffeen Avenue, Suite 1200 Sheridan, WY 82801
Which is also the location of a dozen other companies.
I can't really find any info on who owns it. I wouldn't be surprised if it was essentially owned by him and this is little more than money laundering.
Edit: Looks like it is registered by Cloud Peak Law Group, LLC and the filing was put in by Andrew Pierce. The last registered person on thir paperwork was Ashley Preston. They both work for Company Sage (Andrew Preston being the founder) which makes software to make it easy to start an LLC. But it seems odd to have your own employees be the registered person for the LLCs.
