Well, let me tell ya ’bout this here thing, this… “graff hallucination,” whatever that means. Sounds fancy, like somethin’ them city folks dream up.
It’s a watch, y’know, like one of them things you wear on your wrist to tell the time. But this ain’t no ordinary watch, no sirree. This thing’s got more sparkly stuff on it than a whole jewelry store, I reckon.
They say it’s worth a whole heap of money, somethin’ like 55 million dollars. Can you imagine? That’s more money than anyone in my whole town has ever seen, I betcha.
- First off, this watch ain’t made by no ordinary fella down the street. It comes from some place called Graff, over in London. Heard of it? Me neither, till now.
- Seems this Mr. Graff, he’s got a real hankerin’ for diamonds. Started messin’ with ’em when he was just a young’un, only 15 years old. Imagine that! At 15, I was just tryin’ to figure out how to milk a cow without gettin’ kicked.
Now, this “hallucination” watch, it took a whole army of folks to make it. Thirty of ’em, they say. Designers, gem folks, and all sorts of other fancy workers. Took ’em four and a half years, too. That’s longer than it takes to grow a good crop of corn!
And the diamonds… oh, the diamonds! They say it’s got over 110 carats of ’em. All different colors, too. Some clear, some yellow, some even pink! I ain’t never seen a pink diamond in my life. Probably ain’t never gonna, neither.
This Mr. Graff, he says this watch is like a piece of art. A celebration of them colored diamonds. Well, I guess so. I ain’t no expert on art, but I know sparkly things when I see ’em.
This watch, it’s been around for a while now. They showed it off first in 2014, in some place called Baselworld. Sounds foreign, huh? Bet they got all sorts of fancy things over there.
Some folks call it the most expensive watch in the whole world. I reckon they’re right. I mean, 55 million dollars? That’s enough to buy a whole town, probably.
- And get this, the diamonds are yellow, you know? 216.9 carats of ‘em. They took over 3 years to stick ‘em on the watch. That’s a long time for just a watch.
- I heard tellin’ they made only one of these watch things. And this *, he keeps it for himself. Unless he took it all apart, who knows? Rich folks do funny things sometimes.
Now, they say this watch is a mix of watchmakin’ and jewelry makin’. Fancy words for makin’ somethin’ pretty and useful, I guess. But mostly pretty, if you ask me. I ain’t sure how useful a 55-million-dollar watch can be.
I mean, I got a watch. It tells the time just fine. Cost me maybe ten dollars at the general store. It ain’t got no diamonds, but it works. And if I lose it, well, it ain’t gonna break the bank.
But this “graff hallucination,” it’s a whole different story. It’s for folks with more money than they know what to do with, I reckon. Folks who like to show off their fancy things. Nothin’ wrong with that, I suppose. Just ain’t my kinda thing.
I’d rather have a good pair of work boots and a strong back. That’s somethin’ you can really use, y’know? But hey, to each their own. If this Mr. Graff wants to spend his money on sparkly watches, that’s his business.
Anyways, that’s about all I know ’bout this “graff hallucination.” It’s a fancy, expensive watch made by some rich folks over in London. Got a whole heap of diamonds on it, and it costs more money than I can even imagine. And it’s all because this * likes shiny rocks, simple as that.
