Presidential Scion Spotted Wearing Luxury Timepiece Valued at Nearly $50,000
NEW YORK — Barron Trump, the 19-year-old son of President Donald Trump, made a fashion statement beyond his years yesterday when he arrived at Trump Tower alongside his mother, First Lady Melania Trump. The NYU freshman caught photographers’ attention with a gleaming yellow gold Rolex Daytona adorning his wrist—a luxury timepiece with a price tag that rivals a year of college tuition.
Dressed in contemporary casual attire consisting of a black shirt layered beneath a navy bomber jacket paired with black jeans, the 6’7″ Trump scion maintained his typically understated style. However, the flashy gold Rolex Daytona provided a striking contrast to his otherwise subdued ensemble.
“He’s tall and handsome. A lot of people seem to think he’s pretty attractive—yes, even liberal people like him,” a source previously told People.
The timepiece in question
Horological experts have identified the watch as a yellow gold Daytona model, one of Rolex’s most coveted and prestigious timepieces. According to luxury watch retailer gandgtimepieces.com, the specific model sported by the younger Trump commands a staggering $48,700 on the retail market.
The Daytona line has long been associated with exclusivity and prestige in watch collecting circles, with waiting lists often extending years for certain models. The yellow gold variant worn by Barron represents the upper echelon of the already elite collection.
Mother-son Manhattan moment
Melania Trump complimented her son’s appearance with her characteristic elegance, draping a sophisticated gray trench coat over her shoulders and shielding her eyes with designer sunglasses. The mother-son duo’s appearance at the family’s iconic 58-story Manhattan skyscraper comes just one day before Barron is scheduled to resume classes following spring break.
No ordinary college experience
Currently enrolled as a freshman at New York University’s prestigious Stern School of Business, Barron has been attempting to balance his academic pursuits with the unavoidable realities of being a presidential child. Since classes began last fall, he has been regularly accompanied by security detail while traversing the Washington Square campus.
In a December interview with “Fox and Friends,” Melania acknowledged the unique challenges her son faces in pursuing higher education.
“I don’t think it’s possible for him to be a normal student. His experience at college—it’s very different than any other kid,” she remarked. “I’m very proud [of] how he’s handling [it]. He’s very strong, and he knows that he’s in a different position than other children.”
Campus popularity
Despite the extraordinary circumstances surrounding his collegiate experience, sources indicate that the youngest Trump has integrated well into campus life, particularly among female students.
“He’s at Stern so he’s studying business in some way. He’s a ladies’ man for sure. He’s really popular with the ladies,” an insider revealed to People magazine.
As Barron continues his studies in business at one of the nation’s top programs, his public appearances—and fashion choices—will likely remain under scrutiny, a reality the Trump family has long since grown accustomed to navigating.
