Donald Trump’s newly debuted wristwatch, with its extravagant price and obsolete tourbillon technology, symbolizes a luxurious status symbol yet invites criticism from watch enthusiasts.
The tourbillon device, a 18th-century invention established for improving accuracy, is now largely redundant but still serves as a status symbol in luxury watches.
Despite the watch's hefty price tag and lavish components, industry experts note that the actual value of the watch's parts is considerably less than its retail price.
Trump announced a limited release of only 147 watches, tying his branding strategy to extravagant, celebrity-style marketing, reminiscent of the luxury watch market.
