Ha! You got me. I been pretending to be Australian wanker with only three Rolex.
I use the name "Rocky" because I own the Rocky Mountains. Going to turn them into a chain of ski-resorts - like Great Wall of China. Might let Americans use them - occasionally.
Me and my friend Vlad, we are thinking we buy Rolex - turn it into a smart watch company - change name to Russex.
No room here to show my watch collection - need a bigger Forum. Maybe I buy your Forum....

I know one. He’s a good guy. He (and his money) have been stuck in Moscow for a while now due to (utterly correct) sanctions...

"Beluga Gold Line is a limited edition product. Needless to say, it is dedicated to the true connoisseur of strong spirits. Unlike other Beluga varieties, in this series our trademark blend if artesian water and malt spirits passes through not three but five rounds of filtering.

Each bottle comes with its own serial number and a cork stopped with a sealing wax. To clean out the sealing wax, each bottle of Beluga Gold Line comes with an elegant hammer and brush, emphasizing 100% authenticity and individuality of this limited series vodka as imposing attitude."

I believe this is what the Oligarch's are drinking these days!
Beluga Epicure by Lalique $6.6K+ a bottle! Apparently it goes nicely with Russian Beluga Caviar!

These are our own rich people.
Putin needs to get a driver’s license in some State before he qualifies.
