Great article. We need perspective and sanity and civility. How President Biden spends his $ is his business until the Internet trolls get into it. I don’t think he asked the American people to buy him a Rolex. Being President did give him one advantage over you and I. The Rolex AD probably didn’t put him on a wait list.

This is such a fantastic article and perspective. Readers who feel differently obviously did not understand (at the core) what you were getting at.

I purchased a Jaeger-Le Coultre to celebrate the election.

Well put. Would the naysayers even mention anything if he had spent $80,000 on a Ford F150 Raptor? That would have made him a "good ole boy"!

Funny thing, I wear the exact same watch in 36. The man has good taste!

Nicely put. The NYT piece did a decent job of putting Biden's watch in context, I thought. Interesting that the Twitterverse went nuts over some Nikes (Air Jordan Dior 1s?) worn by Kamala's niece's husband (whew) that are probably worth almost as much as Joe's watch and then everyone lost their minds over Bernie's handmade mittens that probably cost a hundred bucks. Complicated times.

Splendid article...and thank you for pointing out one merit of the pandemic that I had not yet contemplated: the end of e-scooter litter!!! I was really getting sick of accidentally stumbling over them while wrist spotting! Sometimes it simply takes the end of civilization to end the decline of Western civilization 🤣😂🤣. We can only hope the upcoming generation of Robinerhooders are more community conscious and considerate in whatever disruption device they cook up next with this round of cheap money...

Biden isn't moderate, he's a senile tool.

French president Emmanuel Macron used to wear a French-made watch, until the pandemic started, now he ostentatiously goes around with sleeves rolled up and... no watch. This is sanctimonious virtue-signalling.

I loved this. Just enough shade directed at the oh so incredibly inconsistent NYT and a dose of the obvious reasoning they should have acknowledged before going to press.

I hope all you clowns drooling over Biden’s knob are happy. The border has been eliminated. Biden can’t speak without note cards. Kameltoe is a cackling moron. But sure, let’s focus on some made up story about a watch Biden’s handlers told him to wear.

Biden can’t even speak without referring to note cards. Do you think he actually knows what’s on his wrist? Politicians are simply puppets who are manufactured to appeal to your tastes. Nothing they do or say is genuine.

Good taste, my axxx. The senile guy’s mumbling and the Marines didn’t even bother to salute him
