Yes, that's a very good photochop job. Obama wears a watch that was given to him by his Secret Service detail, if I recall correctly. And prior to that watch, he wore a Tag.

He sports a "Jorg Gray"- private line of watches given to him by his security detail. Wears Tags also.

Obviously someone who works/loves Panerai, or someone sneaky may have photoshopped that pic

Yet to see him wear anything on TV other than this Jorg Gray

Nope. Not true, so breath easy. If you didn't, RTFT so you can see that it is a photochop...

Anyone who would choose to wear or not wear a watch because it's worn by any particular individual has a very thin depth of character.

Actually, I'd say JUST THE OPPOSITE!!!

Some of us have certain morals and beliefs that are ingrained into every fiber.

Its people that vacillate or are indifferent that have no "depth of character"
