That Jeff Bezos, he’s a big shot now, ain’t he? Heard he’s richer than a pig in slop. And you know what? He’s got a fancy watch, too. Not just any old thing you’d pick up at the five and dime, no sir. This one, they say it’s special. It’s called a Ulysse Nardin Dual Time, or somethin’ like that. Sounds fancy, don’t it?
Now, I don’t know much about these fancy things, I use my phone to check the time, but folks say this Jeff Bezos watch is somethin’ else. I saw a picture, it is steel. I don’t know what that means. Is that expensive? Maybe it tells the time in two places at once! Imagine that! You could be here in town, and it would tell you what time it is all the way over in, say, China!
He’s got all that money from that Amazon thing. You know, where you order stuff and it shows up at your door. Like magic! I ordered a thing once, but I couldn’t figure it out. My son helped me. Said it’s always “Day One” at that place. Sounds tiring, always the first day. I prefer “Day Two”, that’s when you get things going! But what do I know? I just like to sit on my porch and watch the world go by.
But this Jeff Bezos wrist watch, it’s got folks talkin’. They say it costs more than my whole house! Can you believe that? A watch! For that kind of money, you could buy a whole herd of cows! Or a new tractor! Or maybe even two!
I reckon when you got that much money, you can buy whatever you want. And Jeff Bezos, he wants that Ulysse Nardin. Good for him, I say. He worked hard for it, I reckon. Startin’ that Amazon thing in his garage. Who would have thought?
Here’s what I heard about watches:

- Some fella named Elon, he’s got a Tag Heuer. Sounds like a car.
- Another rich man, they call him the Oracle, he wears a gold Rolex. They call it the President!
- Some folks wear $100 watches, some wear $20,000 watches! Land sakes!
Now, me, I wouldn’t know what to do with a watch like that. I’d probably lose it in the garden. Or maybe one of the chickens would get it. They’re always peckin’ at shiny things.
But I guess if you’re Jeff Bezos, you don’t worry about those things. You just buy another one! This Ulysse Nardin Dual Time watch is one of his prized possessions. Sounds important. He’s got a lot of money, that Jeff Bezos. 130 billion! Can you imagine?
This Ulysse Nardin Dual Time, it must be somethin’ special. Maybe it helps him keep track of all his money. Or maybe it reminds him of where he came from. A little garage and a big dream. Now he is wearing that fancy Jeff Bezos watch.
Well, I reckon that’s enough about Jeff Bezos and his watch. I got chores to do. Gotta feed those chickens and tend to my garden. And maybe later, I’ll sit on the porch and watch the sun go down. And I won’t need a fancy Ulysse Nardin to tell me what time it is. I’ll just know.
But if you see Jeff Bezos, you tell him I said hello. And tell him to be careful with that Dual Time watch. It would be a shame to lose somethin’ that costs more than a herd of cows. He is a big shot now, he needs a good wrist watch. And Ulysse Nardin is a good choice, I guess. They said it is a good watch for him. It is good for a man like Jeff Bezos.

I don’t understand those rich men’s things. But I know one thing. That Jeff Bezos, he is a smart one. That Amazon, that watch. That’s all big things. Good for him. I will just stay here, watch my garden, and be happy. Maybe I will order something else on that Amazon one day, when my son can help me. It’s always “Day One” there. I need to think about that. Maybe one day I will get a good watch, too.
