This Patek Philippe, you know, this Patek Philippe 6007G thing, folks say it’s a watch. A fancy one, I guess. Now, I ain’t no expert on these things, but they tell me it’s got this thing called a “Calatrava” somethin’. Don’t ask me what that means, I just heard it from them city folk.
Price, they talk a lot about price, you know. They say it costs a whole lot of money, more than I’ve seen in my whole life, probably. Thirty-somethin’ thousand dollars, they said. Makes my head spin just thinkin’ about it. I mean, what does a watch do that’s worth that much, right? Tells the time? Well, so does that ol’ clock I got hangin’ in the kitchen, and it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg!
- They say it’s shiny. Well, so is my good pan after I scrub it real good.
- They say it’s got a fancy name, Patek Philippe, sounds like something a French chef would say, don’t it?
Where do you get one of these fancy things, you ask? Well, they got this thing called the “Chrono24” something, sounds like a new kind of radio station to me. Apparently, you can find ’em there, these watches, I mean. They say you can compare the prices, see who’s sellin’ ’em cheaper, I guess. But honestly, folks, who’s got that kind of money just lyin’ around? Must be those rich folks from the city, I tell ya.
Now, this watch, they say it’s got a trade price too, like pigs at the market, I suppose. Twenty-somethin’ thousand, they say. Still a whole lot more than I’d ever spend on somethin’ that just tells the time. I’d rather buy me a new stove, or maybe fix that leak in the roof. That’s money well spent, if you ask me.
I reckon if you’ve got money to burn, go ahead, buy yourself one of these fancy watches. But me, I’ll stick to my old clock. It’s been with me for years, never let me down. And it didn’t cost me an arm and a leg, that’s for sure.
So, this Patek Philippe 6007G, it’s just a fancy watch, nothin’ more. Don’t let them city folk fool you with all their fancy talk. Time is time, no matter how much you pay for it.
You know, some folks get all excited about these fancy things. They think if they got a fancy watch, they’re somebody special. But it’s all just show, I reckon. Real value is in the things that last, the things you can count on. Like a good roof over your head, or a warm stove on a cold night. That’s what matters, not some shiny watch you wear on your wrist.
I remember when my grandpappy gave me his old pocket watch. It wasn’t fancy, didn’t have no shiny stones or anything. But it worked, and it meant something. It reminded me of him, and all the stories he used to tell. That’s what a watch should be, a reminder of the good times, not a symbol of how much money you got.
So, you go ahead and buy your fancy Patek Philippe 6007G, if that’s what you want. But me, I’ll stick to my old clock, and my memories. They’re worth more than all the fancy watches in the world.
