Well, lookie here, all ya fancy folks talkin’ ’bout this Audemars Piglet watch thingy. Sounds like a pig in a wig to me! But they say it costs a pretty penny, more than them Roley watches, you know, the ones with the crown. Heard some rich fella down the road braggin’ ’bout his Roley, but this Piglet thing, well, it’s supposed to be even fancier. More money, more problems, I say!
Now, they’re sellin’ these Piglets in Hong Kong. That’s across the big water, ain’t it? Far away from my little ol’ place. They got all sorts, some made with that rose gold stuff. Sounds pretty, like somethin’ you’d put on a cake. But it’s for watches, they say. And these watches, they ain’t cheap. Heard tell one of them Piglets went for ten thousand and somethin’ dollars! Ten thousand! Could buy a whole lotta chickens with that kinda money.
Then there’s another one, somethin’ called Jules Audemars. Sounds like a fella I knew from church. Anyways, this Jules Piglet, they’re sellin’ it for eight thousand and some change. Still a whole lotta chickens, I reckon. And they say it’s “manual winding.” What’s that mean? You gotta wind it up yourself like an old clock? My grandson got me one of them newfangled watches with batteries. No windin’ needed. Much easier for an old gal like me.
- Piglet watches in Hong Kong, lots of ’em.
- Some made with rose gold, fancy stuff.
- Cost a whole lotta chickens, ten thousand dollars and more!
Folks keep talkin’ ’bout “promotions” and “cheap offers” on these Piglets. Sounds like a bunch of hooey to me. If it’s ten thousand dollars, it ain’t cheap! They use all these fancy words to make ya think you’re gettin’ a deal, but you’re still spendin’ a fortune. I’ll stick to my battery watch, thank you very much.
They say these Piglets come from Switzerland, some place with lots of mountains and cheese, I think. And they’ve been makin’ ’em since 1875! That’s a long time ago, even before my grandma was born. So, I guess they know what they’re doin’, makin’ these fancy watches. But still, ten thousand dollars? My head’s spinnin’ just thinkin’ ’bout it.
Now, there’s somethin’ called Royal Oak Offshore. Sounds like a boat! And it’s a special Piglet, a “30th anniversary” one. Anniversary of what, I wonder? Maybe the day they started makin’ ’em with rose gold? Who knows. But they’re talkin’ ’bout it on somethin’ called a “podcast.” Sounds like a fishin’ rod. My son used to love fishin’.
You can buy these Piglets used, too. Like hand-me-downs, I reckon. They say you can get a “pre-owned” Royal Oak for a “competitive price.” Competitive with what, I wonder? Still gonna cost a whole lotta chickens, I bet. They even give you a “warranty” for a year. That means they’ll fix it if it breaks, I suppose. But what happens after a year? You’re on your own, I guess.
So, there ya have it. All this talk ’bout Piglets and rose gold and ten thousand dollars. Makes my head spin. I’ll stick to my simple life, my chickens, and my battery watch. You fancy folks can have your Piglets. I’ll just sit here on my porch and watch the world go by.
