Can I have the time? Yes You Can !
I love watches and I’m always interested to see what watches politicians and celebrities are wearing. I’ve seen the watch Obama wears and thought it was a good combination between sporty and classic. I actually thought it was an IWC (which usually cost thousands) so was really surprised to hear its made by a little known company called Jorg Gray. Not only that, you can buy practically an identical one on-line for a few hundred bucks!
The watch actually comes with an inscription on the back of the face celebrating Obama’s inauguration. A bit cheesy maybe but would be an original gift for someone.
It looks like you can only order it on-line. The watch costs $350+ $50 international shipping. Here is the link to the website which tells you a bit about the watch itself which was a gift to Obama in 2007: http://barackswatch.com/

By the way i found this comment on the net,”If you use vulgar language, you have no brains, for only those who lack ability to think must use vulgarity to thoroughly express themselves.”
