Trump is selling $100K ‘Swiss-made’ watches. A search for who makes them took a bizarre turn

So I guys you think there are no wrongly convicted people in our criminal justice system.

Can you get any more cringey in your trump defense? How about this: if trump was wrongly convicted, Hunter was wrongly convicted. Right?

Facts really bother you don't they singlemankenneth the man who supported the assassination of his political opponent so to singlemankenneth,

If you condone would be murder doesn't that make you a would be murder?

Hunter plead GUILTY. So no. But nice try.

 

[Dutch Uncle]

If you condone would be murder doesn't that make you a would be murder?

Yes. Remember "Hang Mike Pence"? All those fucking scumbags are "would be murderers".

Notice that not a single MAGAt condemned those actions or the attempts to murder Pelosi and the other Democrats along with Pence.

 

[ExpressLane]

If you don't mind voting for a scammer, then you are right.

So Kamala is a plagiarist that is trying to pass off the work of others as her own work. That is a scam and you intend to vote for her so SU.

Hunter plead GUILTY. So no. But nice try.

He pled to avoid a trial and put his family through more embarrassment and invasions of privacy. Something that never would have occurred to trump.

Condemned them? They agreed with them.

If true is it a felony?

 

[Dutch Uncle]

Not at first he didn't. Only when the Republican weaponized justice system singled him out did he plead guilty. I'm curious about his sentence.

 

[Dutch Uncle]

Condemned them? They agreed with them.

Hence the hypocrisy and seething hatred raging inside all MAGAts.

Such unhappy people like them is why our nation needs assisted suicide available in all retirement homes or caretakers.

 

[Lionfish]

If you condone would be murder doesn't that make you a would be murder?

Not necessarily, singlemankenneth huddles up by his am radio and listens to tom hartman all day. He is not a threat, just another malcontent alt-leftie,

Priceless

 

[christiefan915]

Wonderful advice. I suspect people buy them for a keepsake.

Gullible people who can't tell the difference between quality and cheap glitz.

 

[Dutch Uncle]

If true is it a felony?

MAGAts would like to make it one, but only if the person is Left of Alt-Right.

Hmmm...weird notifications..
Is this my invitation to become the next mod?

Now you do:

Donald Trump is selling a $100,000 gold watch with a tourbillon. Wait, a what?

Donald Trump said 147 of the solid-gold timepieces will be made. He calls them "one of the best watches made," but industry insiders have their doubts.

www.latimes.com

Okay, so the OP #29 is lying. The tourbillion movement is Swiss made by Olivier Mory. While I doubt the watch is worth anything close to $100,000 in terms of its components and labor to make it, scarcity and celebrity often make something overpriced when being sold.

I wouldn't even consider buying one.

 

[ExpressLane]

If you're resorting to crude and pointless insults, then it must be that you feel defeated.

I'm pretty sure he has a point.

 

[Dutch Uncle]

Gullible people who can't tell the difference between quality and cheap glitz.

Agreed. They drool over anything Trump. I wonder how many paid $400 for cheap glitzy $30 sneakers?

Nouveau said on Instagram that the value of 200 grams of gold was less than $13,000. And Jeremy Auslander, partner at L.A.-based Roxbury Jewelry, who examined images of the timepiece at The Times' request, estimated that it contained 1 to 1.25 carats of diamonds. He said the retail price for those diamonds at a VS1 grade — the clarity listed on the Trump Watches website — was about $2,500 to $3,500.

When factoring in the price of the watch's movement — a term for its mechanical innards — as well as fabrication costs, experts told The Times that it probably cost between $20,000 and $30,000 to make each one.

O'Dell, the watch dealer, noted that plenty of mainstream watchmakers enjoy similarly fat margins

We can move along now there is no crisis here.
