Liberal MP gives Rolex a hand following fake gift watches story
Backbencher mocked for effusive praise of watchmaker in press release detailing how he bought timepiece to reward himself for all his hard work.
An Australian politician has issued a timeless press release gushing about his Rolex watch in the wake of news that a group of Liberal MPs thought they had received fake versions of the signature timepieces from a Chinese instant noodle billionaire.
In that instance, Tony Abbott among others, assumed they were fakes, but Liberal backbencher Ian Goodenough has stepped in to praise the real thing, which he bought after “after learning of the brand’s history and commitment to achieving the best time piece product possible”.
