Spiro Agnew watch? Spiro Agnew watch.

Yes, for only $13.95 plus shipping and handling plus a time machine, you can have that wrist ornamentation you’ve craved for so very long: a Spiro Agnew watch. Or buy one as a gift. Nothing says “I love you, well at least enough to give you a novelty timepiece” quite like a disgraced Maryland governor turned Vice-President whose only saving grace was that the President he served under was drummed out of office a few years after his own early exit. And hey, speak of the devil, you can have a Nixon watch too! One for each wrist! Excelsior!

Yes, these were actually a thing for a while., a fad not quite up to pet rocks and mood rings but a fad nonetheless. Oh, and — Moshe Dayan? That, friends, is the very definition of “niche.”

    A quality timepiece like that would make a handy bribe for your favorite corrupt politician!
