Watch Trivia

Of Presidents and Prime Ministers:

What brand of watch was John F. Kennedy wearing when he was assassinated?


Winston Churchill appears in a print advertisement for what watch brand?


Which U.S. President was at one time so poor that he pawned his pocket watch, most likely so that he could buy Christmas presents for his family?

Shoot! And here I am with a computer and all - you'd think I would've looked it up before answering. My wife is right - I AM an idiot!

Thanks for the Utube, dude. And the interesting info.
