Celebrity Style: Usher and President Obama Wear Shinola Watches Made in Detroit

President Barack Obama and R&B crooner Usher Raymond can afford the finest timepieces money can buy. But both men prefer to wear Shinola original watches handmade in Detroit, Michigan.

Now you can wear the same timepiece as the president and Usher Raymond!

The Shinola watch factory is unique in that is the first large scale watch factory in the United States in decades. The watches, which are hand-assembled by black artisans, are affordable and can be custom created to your design specifications for under $600 on the Shinola website.

Obama and Usher both own the Shinola ‘Runwell’ watch series (retail $550-$600).

Usher also wore a Thom Browne white 100% cotton short-sleeved shirt (retail $830) to the ‘Hands of Stone’ photocall in Cannes, France on Sunday. Usher stars as Sugar Ray Leonard in the Robert DeNiro film.

Auntie… There goes another piece to the “trouble in paradise” theory… Usher is not wearing his wedding ring… But did he ever wear it?!!!

President Obama pressure on them Swiss accounts.
He’s not reppin’ that.

He wants that offshore money put back into building places like Detroit ASAP.

Buy something from Switzerland and get audited if you want to…

ugh Édgar Ramírez is looking amazing in a suit. why is he in jeans
ReadingIsFundamental4Real

The watch looks okay; I guess worth the buy if you want to support the business. I REALLY don’t like Rolex watches. Outside of the name, they really are not appealing looking watches to me. Similar to over priced Tiffany silver. I put that junk in my daughter’s toy jewelry box when it was given to me as a gift. no thank you.

Finding Forever…

Off Topic…catch OKC shock the world (Juwan Howard, Fab Five style) last night? Looks to be a good series, was SHOCKED they got past Pops & his elderly crew, LOL. Whole muthafin’ crew tired (see PIC minus Bruce “bowtie” Bowen). They’re turning it on at the right time same as the Cavs (hope they STOMP Jurrasic Park) from the struggles of the season at time.

Loving the support.

The struggle was real last night. When Russ got hot. I got HOT! (pissed). He showed up in the 4th and we fell apart. I hate that they always shooting 3s. Trying to make the big shot. Get them points in the paint!

I want the Raptors to shock the world too… Forget the Cavs. Lol
MotherOfDragons, GetOffMyENuts

I don’t even wear watches. I have a FitBit, that’s the only “watch” I have.
PettyEyezPrime

This what I wear 24/7 minus dishes and shower
PettyEyezPrime

Like your name?
Nancy Drew on my ibrowse today

I only recently started wearing them again… They’re like jewelry to me. I prefer a ‘chunky’ bracelet to thin delicate pieces (which I used to lose constantly), so the mens watches work for me. a cute coordinating cocktail ring balances out the look.
ReadingIsFundamental4Real

how much better exactly? im on california time so i have another hour and a half to entertain this.
Nancy Drew on my ibrowse today

this explains why your neighbors propositioning you… you need to wear some clothes along with that fitbit, LOL!
BlahBlahBlah

taller and thicker, but not fat. but like i said, i don’t see it. met dude once, he short. i feel like i don’t look like em, but that’s what every body says. so, I say never heard it, and I look like Trey Songs every weekend
Finding Forever…

NOOOOOOO. We cheering for two different teams, LOL. They’re going to live or die by those damn 3s sadly. The WHOLE damn wheel off in that 4th. Did you see someone throw or say something to Westbrook, he went to double back and OKC staff member yoked him up…LOL. They’ll probably bounce back & thus HOPING for a good series. NOOOOW those Raptors… LET’S GO CAVS, LET’S GO CAVS, LOL…

so….

WILMINGTON, Del — A spokeswoman for the family of a teenage girl who died after fight in a high school bathroom says they’re not happy with the charges filed in the case, reports CBS News radio affiliate WDEL.Amy Joyner-Francis

One student has been charged with criminally negligent homicide and two
other students were charged with third-degree criminal conspiracy for
allegedly helping to plan the deadly April 21 attack on Amy Joyner-Francis.

“The family is feeling like there’s not a lot of justice with these
charges,” said Sherry Dorsey Walker, a Wilmington City Councilwoman
who’s running for lieutenant governor and is acting as the family’s
spokeswoman.

Dorsey Walker said in an interview with WDEL that the
family believes Joyner-Francis’ autopsy was faulty, leading to weak
charges. Officials concluded that Joyner-Francis died from a “cardiac incident” related to a pre-existing heart condition.
She had an atrial septal defect, which is a hole in the heart, the
autopsy found. Officials said the fight triggered the “cardiac
incident.”

“Amy had (the heart condition) since birth, and it
really healed itself,” Dorsey Walker said. “And so now we’re going to
blame her death on a heart condition when…it was the physical assault
that led to her death–not her heart condition.”

Dorsey Walker
said the family has already spoken with four cardiologists who have
disputed the medical examiner’s findings. She the family will request a
second, independent autopsy.

LOL Pep, hello. Sorry to interject into this story. I am unable to contain it any longer, lol. See they don’t need the x-ray vision. They are looking out at you in them workout clothes, and they are like, yup, hmm mmm, she sure is keeping it “tight & cute”. She shure is. Sorry!

Last time Westbrook said something to the fans, he got fined. Guess he ain’t cared. I missed it. I probably turned at that point. I don’t like losing. I ain’t loyal. Lol.

MotherOfDragons, GetOffMyENuts

I don’t know much about basketball. DF is very in to basketball and has been watching constantly. In the past 3 weeks I’ve caught several different Popvich interviews. He’s very… Let’s put it like this. I don’t like azzholes in general (besides myself and the husband). Bill Belichick is an azzhole coach and something about him grinds my gears. Kobe is an azzhole and I can’t stand him. Gregg Popovich definitely has azzhole qualities and gives no fyucks…but HIM I find hilarious. I like that jerk ?
MotherOfDragons, GetOffMyENuts

Antigone Heart

By all accounts, his stylizations [like many of his celebrity constituents] are heavily documented albeit asinine, and yet it is often someone’s most vest pocket fashion wears that will remain overlooked or deemed nugatory.

What is telling about Usher’s wear is the red stringed bracelet he is wearing; the tell tales signs of a Kabbalah follower and with that one accessory it confirms that he seeks the Kundalini; the coiled one, and its way to open the third eye or to uplift the veil, but again Illuminati members [when spotted] are not surprising.
Antigone Heart

No offense but don’t be easily misguided by the planned visions placed before us. There are many agendas and tactics at play created by those who seek a New World Order. So far, creating chaos from race baiting, transhumanism, trying to create a police state of mind, LGBT matters, attempts at redefining civil rights or tailored legislation, etc. is being used by those shaping or planning events at the Bilderberg Conference(s). Therefore, any tactic is a distraction to the real things that matter. Currently, an organization known as CERN (a group of scientists from around the world) are working to unite matter (found in every living thing) with something coined as anti matter [which is highly destructive] in order to open a portal to the unknown.

Also, the state of Denver’s international airport has murrals depicting horrid images of New World Order ambitions painted inside their building, a pale horse of the Apocalypse with glowing red eyes to “greet” visitors on the outside of the airport, masonic symbols on the grounds of the airport, and a masonic capstone dedicated to a New World Coalition which doesn’t exist [yet] that has a time capsule underneath. The airport has chosen to unlock the time capsule in the year of 2094.

Conclusion: The US President’s [albeit that they are black or white] only agenda is a New World Order agenda. It is no surprise that current and former U.S. presidents are often related.
