      His hands aren’t even particularly small. But he’s an old, fat and decrepit man and he needs a very large and padded suit to give his body some sort of healthy appearance. His hands sticking out of that suit therefore look tiny.

      Seriously, look at the pictures of him golfing in his XXXL polo shirt. The guy is shaped like one of the McNuggets

    The small print at the bottom of the page is quite something.

      So he’s not seen as the one to directly profit from it, but can still make a quick buck on the licensing and play dumb when the watches are worthless crap

        Fuck me, at this point I feel like it wouldn’t be too hard to just… create a website selling expensive ass Trump shit and in reality dropship it from Aliexpress

        I mean there’s probably a bunch of people doing it, but I wonder how hard it would be to do it without, y’know, any legal trouble.

            Oh I don’t even live anywhere close to the US, he’d be suing a legal entity that would probably be registered by some sorta service that lets you register LLCs in the US lol

      TheBestWatchesOnEarth LLC started in 07/2024.

      Located at:

      1309 Coffeen Avenue, Suite 1200 Sheridan, WY 82801

      Which is also the location of a dozen other companies.

      I can’t really find any info on who owns it. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was essentially owned by him and this is little more than money laundering.

      Edit: Looks like it is registered by Cloud Peak Law Group, LLC and the filing was put in by Andrew Pierce. The last registered person on thir paperwork was Ashley Preston. They both work for Company Sage (Andrew Preston being the founder) which makes software to make it easy to start an LLC. But it seems odd to have your own employees be the registered person for the LLCs.

    Wow, these are some truly hideous watches. This has got to be a money laundering scheme or something. No one actually interested in watches would spend six figures on one of these.
