"Hublot put the ‘whore’ in horology" and "You never actually own a Patek Phillippe. You merely look after it for your douchebag son." Two pretty classic lines, and hard to argue with his logic.
Thanks for posting. this

That's pretty funny.
I liked the lines about the Yachtmaster and Cuban's quote.

Funny
"Rolex says you've got a little bit of money, but nothing interesting to say." "Hublot put the ‘whore’ in horology." Mark Cuban said, “When you control time, you don’t need to know what time it is.” Funny stuff, thanks for the chuckle.

Thanks. That was a cracker. I got lots of laughs out of that.
My favourites were the PP & the YM.
