A Rhode Island man was left crestfallen when a pricey pink President Trump-themed watch he purchased for his wife arrived with a conspicuous letter missing, according to a report.
Tim Petit bought his wife, Melanie, a “limited edition” timepiece from the website GetTrumpWatches, costing about $640, but when it arrived, the Trump logo was missing the vital “T” — leaving a prominent “RUMP” on the watch’s face.
The “RUMP” watch was a pink Inauguration First Lady model, which is billed as attracting “prosperity and love while enhancing intuition and creativity” and is purportedly one of just 250 Trump Watches claimed on its website.
After the couple’s complaints to the company fell on deaf ears, they went to WJAR with their story. Only after the local station reached out to Trump Watches for comment did the company replace the timepiece and offer the Petits an $800 coupon and apology, the outlet said.
The Trump Watches are not designed, manufactured, distributed or sold by President Trump, the Trump Organization, or any affiliates. The LLC uses the name, image, and likeness of Trump under a paid license agreement, according to the company website.
