Listen up, folks, gonna tell ya ’bout them Audemars Piguet watches, the ones they call “Royal Oak.” Fancy name, ain’t it? Heard folks sayin’ somethin’ ’bout “payin’ basic basic basic prices in 2022.” Don’t rightly know what all them “basics” mean, but I reckon it’s about gettin’ a deal, yeah?
Now, these watches, they ain’t no cheap trinkets you find at the county fair. Heard tell they cost a pretty penny. Someone mentioned somethin’ ’bout the cheapest one bein’ seventeen thousand and some odd dollars! Seventeen thousand! Lord have mercy, that’s enough to buy a whole new tractor, and then some!
They say it’s a small one, too, just 33 somethin’ somethings. Millimeters, I think they called ’em. Don’t know much about that, but sounds small to me. And it runs on a “quartz.” Like them little rocks you find in the creek? Guess they make watches tick now. Who’d a thunk it?
Now, if you want one that ain’t powered by no rock, they got these automatic ones. But them, they cost even more! Twenty-five thousand dollars, they say. For a watch! Shoot, you could buy a whole new pickup truck for that kinda money. Or fix up the barn roof, which is what I need more than some fancy watch.
- They make ’em out of steel, these watches. Like the stuff they use to build bridges. Guess that means they’re strong, huh? But still, seems awful expensive for somethin’ made of steel.
- Then there’s these “chronographs.” Sounds complicated, don’t it? Heard tell they got somethin’ to do with timin’ things. Like how long it takes to boil an egg? I use the kitchen clock for that. Works just fine.
Someone mentioned Tom Brady. You know, the fella who throws the football. Apparently, he bought one of these watches in 2022. Got a paper with his name on it and all. Guess if he can afford one, they must be somethin’ special. Though I reckon he’s got more money than sense, spendin’ it on somethin’ like that.
Folks are sayin’ these watches are real popular, even with the high prices. Always a waitin’ list to get one. But now, seems like fewer folks want ’em. Maybe they finally realized they could spend their money on somethin’ more useful. Like a good pair of work boots. Or a new plow.
They say these “Royal Oak” watches are real fancy. Folks wear ’em to them tennis matches and movie shows. Guess they wanna look all highfalutin. Me, I’d be too afraid of scratchin’ it, doin’ chores around the farm. Imagine breakin’ a fifty-thousand-dollar watch while feedin’ the chickens! Land sakes, I’d have a heart attack.
So, there ya have it. That’s all I know about them Audemars Piguet watches. Fancy, expensive, and made of steel. If you got the money to burn, go ahead and get one. Me, I’ll stick with my old reliable clock. Tells me the time just fine, and it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg.
