While on a shopping excursion recently, I was surprised as well as impressed to learn that Mr. Trump has a line of wristwatches for purchase. Needless to say, I had to have this watch. I was also impressed by his packaging. Take a look! | |||

A two-toned, silver/rose gold color, sleek, classic tank watch! | ||||
|
Signature buckle! | ||||

In my book, Mr. Trump does it up right! Is this a chronograph wristwatch? If so, how do the circles within the dials read? Stephanie O'Neil | ||||

Is that a battery operated watch... or a mechanical? | ||||
|
Very handsome looking watch. I would assume the upper dial is a calendar while the lower a 24 hour register. Anyone else? Thanks for sharing. Mike | ||||

Stephanie, I think this is definitely a quartz watch. I believe it sells for around $125.00. The upper sub dial tells the day of the month. The lower subdial seems to be a 24 hour dial. For the money it's a pretty stylish looking item. NOTE:- I wonder where this one was made ? Dave Freeman IHC Member 321 | ||||

Hi Tim, Yes, it is battery operated! Michael D. Thanks! So you say upper - calender lower - 24 hour register Dave, Hi there! I knew that my watch is battery operated. I also know how much I paid for my watch. With regard to subdials, what is the purpose of the lower 24 hour dial? Anyone? I have not tried to set these sub dials of yet. I'm pleased with Mr. Trump's style of watches for sure! Have others seen them for sale in their areas? Stephanie O'Neil | ||||

Hi Stephanie, It looks like the lower 24 hour dial can be used to quickly reference your current time into "military time" which uses the 24 hour system. I can't see it clearly enough in the picture but it looks like, on the lower dial, the hand has just passed the "13" (or is that a 12?). That would match what the time says on the main dial. So... in the picture the time reads about 1:07. The lower subdial (if I'm correct) is just passed the 13, or 1300 hours military time. Military time is also frequently used in business to avoid confusion between "AM" and "PM". Then, you can determine that the 1:07 is actually in the afternoon and not the morning from the picture. Hope I got that right! It's a classy looking watch. Has almost a deco look to it... but a bit revised. | ||||

Hi Tim, Thanks for elaborating on the purpose of the bottom sub-dial on my watch. I thought it could be for military time use. Makes good sense! It does have a deco feel to it! I love it!! Stephanie O'Neil | ||||

If any of you think "The Donald" had anything to do with the selection of watches under his name...YOU ARE SADLY MISTAKEN! I, Personally, would not think this guy is all that great! Stop to think how many stockholders have lost money through his past bankruptcies. Just look at all the women he made babies with and dumped them. He's a promoter and he's been lucky with selling his name to products that use the "TRUMP" name. People should learn that self-promotors have EGOS bigger than "their bulk!" NO...I never lost money at any of the Casinos he DOES not own in his OWN name, nor in the stocks of any of the companies that he is associated with. My thoughts and $1.00 will get you a cup of coffee and a refill at one of the restaurants I frequent. He does not need my disgust to glorify his name any further. So I stop here. | ||||

Stephanie, Very cool watch!! I concur that a lot of businesses use military time and unless you have been in the military most people get easily confused. Daniel: So are you telling us in your own special way that you don't like "The Donald"? Mike | |||
